What Can I Expect

Go bouldering at an Arch Climbing Wall in London! Brilliant indoor bouldering whatever the weather, at four locations across London. This one voucher is valid at all venues, so take your pick and learn how to climb in the heart of London.

Bouldering is a form of rock climbing that doesn't require ropes or harnesses, but it does require coordination and a keen eye for the right route to take amongst the many hand and foot holds. These indoor London centres specialise in the sport of bouldering.

To the untrained eye, all climbing walls look the same, but bouldering is more free-style, as you're not attached by carabiners to ropes and harnesses. The heights you climb to are much lower and when you fall, or reach the top of your 'boulder', you land on the big crash mats that cover the entire floor.

With centres located in Burnt Oak, Surrey Quays and Acton, you're never far from an Arch climbing centre if you're in London. These are super well-equipped indoor rock climbing centres that make quite an impression when you walk in for the first time. There are walls all around you on different planes and different angles, covered in various shapes, sizes and colours of holds.

Don't feel daunted though, the London climbing community is friendly and welcoming. The idea of these indoor taster sessions is to give you the basic training and techniques to then be able stay on after your lesson to carry on climbing. It's a great way to access a superb new sport - and it's one that doesn't cost a fortune to get into, you just need climbing shoes and chalk.

These one-hour sessions at the Arch climbing wall of your choice include a safety briefing, teaching on technique, guidance on bouldering etiquette and loan of the kit. What we love most about this introductory offer is the fact that after the class has ended, you are welcome to stay and practice your moves. And you'll be presented with a free day pass valid for any of the centres run by the Arch team.
