Climbing Wall

Penrith Leisure Centre Climbing Wall is the all weather option for climbers; with over 120 sq m of wall surface, 8m leading walls (one overhanging by 1.5m) another with overhanging prow. We now also have two auto belays. Safety matting is in place to cushion any slip ups. 

Climbers will need to bring their own equipment and be competent climbers as this is an unmanned wall. Please be aware that 2 adults must accompany any children 11-17yrs so that you can safely put the top ropes up, or alternatively use the auto belays. Slinging to the top is not allowed. Our wall is open during our centre opening hours unless otherwise advertised.

For those wishing to take up climbing or to improve technique Junior and Adult climbing courses are available; all equipment is provided, participants simply need comfortable sports wear and trainers or climbing shoes. Lessons are suitable for children aged five years and above. Spaces are limited so book your place now!
