Anyone can learn to climb at Glasgow Climbing Centre, but only climbers of suitable experience and age can climb independently, without supervision. As a novice looking to come in today, you can choose from a range of instructor-led climbing tasters or come in as the guest of a registered independent climber.
Climbing is the ultimate full-body workout whatever your age and level of fitness and a fun way to build strength, coordination and give your confidence a boost. It’s a relaxed social sport with many active clubs that can be a great way to meet new people and get involved in outdoor climbing & mountaineering.
Have fun, get physical and reach new heights on our fantastic climbing walls.
The easiest way for all age groups to try climbing, under the supervision of our friendly instructors. Have fun and challenge yourself on the wall, climb together with the kids or let the kids have a session on their own while you enjoy a coffee in our great cafe. Children under the age of 7 must have an adult taking part with them.
This hour of fun and exciting climbing gives you, whether you’re fearless or cautious, a great flavour of what’s involved when starting out in the world of climbing.

As a novice, you can come in and climb with any Glasgow Climbing Centre registered independent climber aged 18+. Registered independent climbers over the age of 18 can bring in two guests of any ability and age to supervise and climb with, independently of an instructor.
To become a registered independent climber you first have to register online or in person when you come in and then complete a climbing skills demonstration when you first come in to climb.
Novice climbers wanting to become a registered independent climber can sign up to and successfully complete one of our induction courses before getting signed off.
Alternatively, just book one of our instructor led activities and enjoy climbing under the supervision of one of our friendly instructors.
