Our indoor arena offers exhilarating, fun, safe climbing experiences for all ages, with 21 agility-testing individual and multi-climber challenges of varying design and difficulty, testing agility and courage in different ways.
Enjoy climbing in a safe and secure environment.
Climbers are connected via the BelayMate, which is a tamper-proof system ensuring 100% secure connection to the Auto Belay line before climbers commence their climb.
If old enough, the climber can connect themselves, to be in control of their own climbing experience. Do not worry, with the BelayMate system you cannot clip in wrong, so once clipped in they are safe to climb. And our staff are here to help at anytime.
If your child cannot clip themselves in then one adult is allowed to stay in the arena to help them, but we do have staff in the arena to clip them in and out, so why not have a nice coffee or tea in our cafe.
Our parties give the birthday child a fabulous experience. We make our own pizza dough for the best-tasting pizzas or you can have local butcher sausage in soft hotdog rolls, or most people go for a mixture of both! Served with a finger salad, crisps and unlimited squash and followed by an ice-lolly. You bring the birthday child, the birthday cake and invite the friends and we will do the rest.
After the climb, they are always ready for party food! We can also put on the disco lights for part of the climb if desired.
We also offer after-school parties so your child can have their party on their actual birthday!!
Our parties are 1 hour in the arena climbing and 30-40 minutes of party food in our cafe.
Minimum 10 people. See our prices page for relevant details.
To enquire about booking a party, either give us a call or email us on info@clipnclimbilkley.co.uk to receive a party information pack.

We are a popular choice for Scouting and Guiding groups. From Beavers and Rainbows up to Explorers, climbing is proven to have many benefits: not only does it get children physically active; it also requires problem solving; lateral thinking and is a brilliant activity to help build confidence; get children to challenge themselves; learn new skills and feel/explore a range of emotions and how to deal with them.
Some Scouts and Guides have even made their promises up the wall to make it a truly memorable occasion. It might even earn you a badge to add to your other activity badges.
Sometimes Leaders decide to have their planning meeting in the cafe overlooking the arena.
And easy access with a car park and train line literally 50 steps away. Parents can stay and watch from our cafe too.
