Explore Gloucestershire has teamed up with 270 Climbing Park to offer a fantastic prize: a '2-Hour Session for 4 People at 270 Climbing Park'!
Located conveniently between Cheltenham and Gloucester, 270 Climbing Park offers a fantastic day out for families.
270 Climbing Park features one of the tallest and most challenging ropes courses in the country, including High Ropes, Low Ropes, Zip Lines, Tower Jumps, and more.
With ample parking and refreshments available on site, it's the perfect place to visit this summer holiday with family and friends.
Calling all 11–16-year-olds eager to explore the world of climbing this summer!
270 Climbing Park is thrilled to announce the launch of its "Intro to NICAS Bouldering" sessions.
These beginner-friendly classes introduce young climbers to the exciting sport of bouldering, a form of climbing done on walls up to 4m high with thick mats below for safety. No ropes or harnesses are needed, making it an accessible way to start climbing.
Bouldering emphasises problem-solving and technique over brute strength, making it suitable for all fitness levels. Each session includes a free pair of climbing shoes, so participants don't need to invest in gear upfront. The sessions are designed to teach essential climbing skills, movements, and safety practices, all guided by qualified coaches.
Participants will also learn about the National Indoor Climbing Award Scheme (NICAS), a structured programme that tracks climbing progress and can be used towards various certifications, including Duke of Edinburgh Awards and GCSEs. Each participant receives a NICAS logbook to document their achievements and progress.
The "Intro to NICAS Bouldering" sessions are held in small groups of up to six people, ensuring personalised instruction. Classes run from 10 am to 12 pm over five consecutive days, Monday to Friday. While some weeks are already fully booked, there is still availability for two courses taking place during August.
