Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Climbing at Rainbow RocketRainbow Rocket , Cambridge
Come bouldering with Climbridge, the newest climbing club in Cambridge!
All abilities are welcome! The walls are covered in routes suitable for complete beginners up to very experienced climbers, and we have regular climbers across the range! Most often, we're around 5~10 regulars, and once most have arrived we then tend to split into smaller groups!
We'll meet inside - in the furthest room, at the rainbow slab, see the map. Alternatively look for my t-shirt with the Climbridge logo on (white or green t-shirt with black logo)!
One-off entry is £16, however drops to £13.25/visit for regulars if you buy entry in bulk (10 entry punch card). Shoe hire is also available.
Climbers new to Rainbow Rocket need to pre-register online.
RR is a dedicated indoor bouldering centre - there's no harnesses, ropes etc as the walls are not too high. Each week a zone of the centre is reset, meaning there is always a fresh challenge waiting!
For those who fancy climbing more frequently visit the Climbridge website - there you'll find details of upcoming events such as indoor roped climbing in Milton Keynes, London and even some outdoor events. There is also a WhatsApp group for impromptu climbs/pub visits:
