LancasterWall is Lancaster’s first, and only purpose-built bouldering facility, brought to you by the Lakeland Climbing Centre Ltd and provides the perfect environment to start your climbing journey. Adults can come down to the centre and get climbing straight away, or if you’d like a bit more guidance on the beginning of your climbing journey why not book one of our instructed sessions.

But what is bouldering?
Bouldering is a fun and accessible way to start climbing and beginners can enjoy immediate success right from the moment they step on to the wall. Bouldering gives you a chance to tackle our purpose made problems while enjoying the safety provided by a crash mat. Bouldering does not require a lot of equipment and there are only a few key safety points you need to learn to get going.

Bouldering is a the perfect blend of physical and mental exercise and many people find that once they give it a go they are hooked for life. Not only does bouldering provide a unique form of exercise it also provides one of the most friendly and inclusive communities you’ll find.

Bouldering Taster Sessions
Taster sessions are an ideal way to get started on your climbing journey, perfect for families or groups of friends. One of our instructors will guide you through an hour long session in our fabulous center giving you the chance to try everything we have to offer with the security of having a staff member on hand to offer direction where needed. There is no need to have any prior experience to attend these sessions.

Bouldering Induction Plus
Whether you have never climbed before or would like a refresher, our qualified instructors will guide you through a practical introduction to bouldering safety, technique and how to make the most of your climbing sessions. Bouldering Inductions are also suitable for those who are new to climbing who would like to supervise juniors in the bouldering environment, or for Junior climbers (aged 14 years or over) to start the process of becoming unsupervised junior boulderers; however a parent must attend the session if this is the aim.
