Rappelling

Hi there, Whether you’re totally new to climbing or intermediate, all levels are welcome. We are not affiliated with UP climbing so if you ask about the meetup at reception they'll be confused 😛. **🕒 When** Every **Thursday at 6pm**. Meet us at **UP Climbing**, right by the **merchandise section** (to the right of reception). **💰 Costs** No meetup fee — just show up! (Regular gym entry and shoe rental aren’t included.) You can check the gym’s prices **[here](https://upclimbing.com.au/prices/)**. **📝 First time at the gym?** Make things quick and easy by filling out the waiver **[here](https://climber.hellocapitan.com/upclimbing/documents/fill/list/)** before you arrive. **🧗 What to bring / wear** * Comfy clothes you can move in * Climbing shoes (rentals available at the gym) * Chalk (optional) * Water bottle (there is a water refill station at reception)

Arrive at 18:15 for a 18:30 KO. Bring boots and water. Slide tackling is strictly prohibited and will result in a penalty awarded to the opposition - stay on your feet.

Looking to get outside, clear your head, and connect with good people? Join us for a relaxed walk around the beautiful streets and coastline of Port Melbourne. This is a casual meetup—no fitness goals, no pressure. Just a friendly stroll, good conversation, and a reason to step away from screens and into the fresh air. Whether you’re new in town, working from home, or just want a social reason to walk, you’re very welcome. Come as you are. Comfy shoes, water bottle, and curiosity are all you need. **Optional:** After the walk, some of us might grab a coffee nearby — feel free to join if you’re up for it!

Hello Climbers! Just meet at the yellow sign and introduce yourself :) From there we pair up to climb. If we have an odd number of people, we can make a rotating group of 3. There is also a self-belay area if you want to get in more climbing if in a group of 3 or arriving earlier. If the event you are planning to go to only has one or 2 people on the ‘attending’ list, we encourage organising a climbing partner in advance so you can make sure you have at least one other person there to climb with! Feel free to reach out on the event wall or message a host :) Meet up will start at 6pm but if you want to start earlier you certainly can, but again you will need to organise a climbing partner in advance. New climbers are welcome, however your mandatory induction takes about 15/20mins. Harnesses, shoes and chalk bag can be hired also. Book in here for your induction: https://www.hardrock.com.au/online-booking/ If you are unwell, please don't attend!
