HERE'S A BRIEF LOOK AT WHAT TO EXPECT


BOULDERING
BOULDERING
AUTO BELAY
AUTO BELAY
Bouldering is the simplest form of climbing, requiring nothing but appropriate safety pads to protect landings, and something to climb.
Since there are no ropes in bouldering, every fall off the boulder results in the climber falling to the mats below.
Bouldering routes, or “problems,” are typically very short, requiring a handful of powerful moves to complete.
Because there are no ropes or equipment involved, bouldering is ideal for those looking to climb on their own.
Auto Belays are a great way to experience some of our taller wall climbing without the need for an experienced partner operating a rope belay system (a form of climbing known as Top Rope).
The climber uses a carabiner to attach the belay system to their harness. As they begin to climb, the webbing they're attached to retracts back into the device at the top of the wall.
If the climber falls, or if they reach the top and let go, the auto belay magnets kick in to provide a smooth descent back to the ground, where the climber can try again or disconnect.

MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR TIME AT THE GYM

Individuals under 13 years of age must be actively supervised by an adult over the age of 16 at all times.

Waivers must be completed for everyone who passes the front desk. Individuals under 18 years of age must have a legal parent/guardian sign a waiver on their behalf. Waivers expire after 2 years or once someone turns 18 years old.

To top rope belay (use the hanging ropes in the gym), a climber must pass a belay test at the Grotto or at Junction Climbing Centre in London. The belayer must supply their own climber. The belayer must be 13 years of age or older (unless supervised by Grotto staff during Grotto youth programming).

To lead climb, a climber must pass a lead test at the Grotto or at Junction Climbing Centre in London. For lead tests, each belayer must supply their own dynamic rope, GriGri, locking carabiner, and climber. Lead climbers/belayers must be 16 years of age or older. Those aged 16 and 17 must have a parental permission form signed.

All new climbers and participants must complete an orientation to the facility prior to entering the gym.

Clean dry shoes must be worn in the facility. Please avoid wearing light-up or flashing shoes.

We recommend becoming familiar with Grotto policies, available on our website.
