Bringing your Children to Mile End
Under 18's cannot climb at Mile End Climbing Wall unless they are under the supervision of a pre-booked instructor or a registered adult (over 18 roped climber) or unless already signed off otherwise.
We offer a range of courses and activities for young people, from open climbing supervised by a parent, one-off fun climbing sessions for kids, a nationally recognized award scheme, a climbing competition squad, as well as beginner courses for rope climbing and bouldering. The lower age limit for our instructed sessions is 7 years old.
No Minimum age requirement. To supervise U18s, adults must have taken the intro to bouldering course or be registered at Mile End as a competent rope climber (must be able to safely and correctly put on a climbing harness, tie the rope onto the harness with a suitable knot, belay suitably, show an awareness of the rules and inherent dangers associated with the sport and the center).
One adult can supervise up to two children, and cannot climb while doing so.
Once they reach 14 years old, experienced climbers can be eligible for climbing unsupervised at Mile End. Click here for more information.
