The Clickimin Climbing Wall opened officially on the 11th September 2006. Inductions for using the wall are carried out by qualified instructors, and, if you are already a climber, can be arranged by contacting us - See below. Climb Shetland have regular bookings at the wall where use is restricted for us.

Times and Prices

Tuesdays    7pm - 10pm

 

Members:          £3.50 per night

Non-members:   £5.00 per night

 

This is payable to a Climb Shetland Committee Member on the night NOT Clickimin.

 

It is essential that you sign in every time you are at a club evening. There will be a folder for this there.

There is no need to book a place on these nights. Just turn up.

You may also book the wall at any time subject to availability. Cost is £2.80 per person per hour and there is a minimum of 2 people required to use the wall.

Inductions

To climb at the wall you must have undertaken the induction. Induction sessions will be mentioned on the forum 1 week before. If you are already a climber, these will take place on club nights, and can be organised by contacting us. If you are not competent at belaying, tying in etc then you must attend a beginner's induction session.

Beginner's induction sessions will be organised by the Clickimin and are for complete beginners who do not own any of their own equipment, and do not know how to belay or tie in. There is a waiting list for these inductions; please ask the Clickimin for more details.

You cannot take someone to climb who has not been inducted, even under your supervision, unless they are your child, see below.

Children

The age restriction for the wall has now been waived and under 10s may now climb under the supervision of a parent or guardian who has been inducted. The adult must not climb, only belay the child. This applies for children up to the age of 14, but any child over 10 may do an induction which is recommended.

Our club nights are mainly for the adult members of the club, but children who have been inducted are welcome if supervised by a parent. In the future we may be running Youth Sessions, so if you are interested then please contact us.

Further Details

Harnesses, belay devices, helmets, chalk bags and rock shoes are available for hire at the Clickimin. Please ask to borrow equipment on a club evening, don't just help yourself.

Do not hesitate to contact us with any further enquiries, or post a message on the forum.

How to get involved?

There are now even more ways to get involved at the indoor wall:

Club Nights

If you've done your induction and want to climb at the wall then our club nights are ideal. Club nights are an excellent way ti gain climbing experience in a safe and comfortable environment. Its also a great way to meet new people and the evenings are more about fun than serious climbing.

Club nights take place every Tuesday from 7-10pm. See opposite.

Taster Sessions

Climb Shetland now run taster sessions at the wall where you can come and try climbing whatever your ability or experience.

Have you completed your induction and want to gain more experience, or been on the waiting list for an induction for ages and fed up of waiting, or just never climbed before and want to see if its for you? If so then our taster sessions are ideal. Experienced instructors will be on hand to help you get the most out of the evening.

They are held on the first Tuesday of every month from 7-10 pm and cost £5.

Youth Sessions

Aged between 10 and 16? Done your induction but got no-one to climb with? Then our youth sessions are for you! Come along between 7-8pm on Tuesday nights and experienced instructors will be on hand to get you climbing as well as giving free advice and coaching. Cost is £3.50.
