Urban Climb is one of those places where you can just let go and hang out; though probably not…read moreliterally. I used to be scared of heights, so a friend decided the easiest way to get over it would be to scale a wall of about 10 meters while secured with a harness. It worked, albeit with much yelling and, 'I'm not letting go of the %$##@! wall!' But now I'm hooked. To be fair, people can start off at around 5 meters and work thier way up to a giant 12 meter waterfall and nose style wall (massive upper body strength training, oh the pain...), and for people who just want to try boulering there is also a 3 meter high bouldering wall. Prices vary, but average at about $25-$30 a climb (if you're renting equiptment, but you can bring your own harness and shoes), and its for unlimited climb time. You will need a partner to belay you, or Urban Climb organise singles nights (check out thier website for more details). The staff are great, and the walls are ridiculously fun. the general vibe of the whole place is adrenaline pumped spider-people, which adds a pretty good atmosphere. Word to the wise though: if it's your first time, you need to do an introduction with the staff for saftey which is included in the price of your climb and is a one off, but dont usually start until after 5pm on Monday to Thursday, 4pm on Fridays, and 10am on Saturday and Sundays. And if you're renting shoes, bring socks. Seriously.

I've been a member of Urban Climb for a few years now and despite being a little more expensive…read morethan your average gym (and open for fewer hours), I'm very glad I discovered it and the joys of rock climbing. Wander in in the early evening on a weeknight and take a look at one of the fittest and hippest sporting communities around (plenty of eye candy too for people of all persuasions). In addition to boasting far more climbing space than their competitor indoor rock climbing facility Rocksports they also have a pretty well decked out traditional gym space - 'The Lab' - with free weights, machines, exercise bikes, treadmills etc. The main room is a large rectangular shape (about 400+ sq. m) of rock climbing space, with four walls to choose from. Beginner walls on the far left and right of the gym are perfect for learning the ropes (pun intended) while the overhung 'wave wall' is at the other end of the spectrum -- great for the more experienced climber or the learner wanting to push themselves and build endurance. They also have a couple of areas dedicated to bouldering (short intense climbing roots done without a rope -- a padded mat cushions your repeated falls) and a newly constructed wooden wall on the mid right hand side as you walk in. These guys seem to be doing pretty well for themselves and it's good to see that they are reinvesting in the business. The only downside for me is that the place has kind of slack opening times. They only roll up the doors at midday on a weekday (though they do stay open until 10pm). On weekends it's a slightly earlier opening time. It isn't cheap either, with a one-off visit costing a day tripper nearly $30 (gear hire included, cheaper if you have your own shoes and/or harness). I pay arounf $65/ month for my full membership, a figure which has probably climbed a bit (pun intended).

School holidays so i gathered up all the children and thought we should go and check this place out, was great for the kids - assorted ages from 15 to 5 and there was something for them all. Make sure you bring your own water and snacks or come cashed up. Kids can not and will not jump for an entire hour without adequate water and food options - lol The park is quite large and broken up into many different and varied parts - wall walking, dodge ball, basket ball, foam pit etc Every section is staffed to ensure safety and security, good for groups and only children.

If you need anything at all to do with rock climbing or mountaineering, Pinnacle is the place to…read morego. Information, instruction, equipment, perhaps an expedition to Mt Everest, they have it all. The guys at Pinnacle have years of experience climbing and trekking and are keen to share their love of climbing with anyone who walks in the door. Their rock climbing courses are great for beginners and more advanced climbers wanting to develop their skills. They do them down at Kangaroo Point, Brisbane's famed outdoor rockclimbing cliffs and they start from around $300 for a six-week course. The best thing about the courses is that everyone who does one is able to come along to the free social climbing events Pinnacle puts on every week, usually down at the cliffs. They're great for keeping up your climbing skills and meeting other people with a love of climbing. They also have all the equipment you could ever need for climbing and trekking and the expertise to help you put together your own kit.

I loved everything about my experience from Green Frog. As a solo traveller on Easter Long Weekend,…read moreI wasn't sure if they'd even be operating, let alone if they had room for one more. Kelly was absolutely wonderful on email as they tried to slot me in. I was so excited to get my confirmation that I was on the Saturday morning half day abseiling and rock climbing adventure. Having not previously done either activity, I wasn't sure what to expect, but Graham and his crew really put me at ease. We got to abseil down the kangaroo point cliffs twice - they even let us flip upside down once we were comfortable (trust me, after that first step, its a breeze!) I'm so happy I took a jump out of my comfort zones and a few overly cautious steps off that cliff!

Although it's probably around ten years old now, the structure is still very modern, clean and feels quite new. They run competitions for numerous sports, and whenever organised competition is not taking place the courts are sure to be used by amateurs perfecting their slam dunks. They also organise activities for kids on school holidays, so if you're about to throw that Xbox controller out the window, you might like to take a look at their program.
