DESCRIPTION OF KENDAL CLIMBING WALL

The Lakeland Climbing Centre offers a unique opportunity to experienced climbers and beginners alike.

MAIN HALL

The Main Hall has climbing of all standards, and a wide range of styles. Routes are regularly changed and kept clean for chalk and slime free climbing.

The big 18 metre wall is impressive, but not only for top-standard routes - this area always has routes of a more accessible standard for ordinary mortals too!

Other features of this area are the stalactite (right), roof area, slabs and lots of frequently changed routes of about 10m in length.

BOULDERING

Re-designed and upgraded in Autumn 2003, our two bouldering rooms provide a great facility for all abilities. The first room has a Livingstone curved resin wall giving 30 sq m of realistic bouldering. The modular system has allowed us to change the configuration for a new feel. New for 2003 are a multi angled cave/roof area and an undercut prow giving a huge variety of climbing angles and featuring grooves, arêtes, hanging slabs and roofs.

The second room has angles from slabs to off-vertical, with both featured and panelled sections. There are a wide variety of features such as cracks, corners, bulges, grooves and arêtes to make life interesting!

All areas are floored with thick fitted matting.

We run a very popular fun bouldering "ladder" during the winter months giving up to 60 marked problems of all grades, and host competitions at both local and national levels. Effective dust control, hold cleaning and fresh lighting complete the atmosphere to give a great place to crank those problems!
