What Can I Expect

Brilliant bouldering fun in Bath! Ideal for beginners, these four-hour sessions with an instructor which show you how to boulder climb at this sheltered outdoor spot. Vouchers are for two people.

Just outside Bath, there’s a rather special place that is well-known in climbing circles for its impressive boulders. These large limestone outcrop rocks are ideal for bouldering, which is essentially free climbing rocks that are close to the ground.

You may have seen or done bouldering indoors, or at the gym, but being outside brings a whole new dimension to the sport and it’s really rather wonderful, especially in a boulder location as unique as this, so close to Bath.

Gully Woods and Sally in the Woods are secluded, peaceful and quiet. Respecting the surroundings, these sessions are very much ‘leave no trace’ style, so what you bring (personal belongings, the bouldering mats, chalk, rock shoes etc) you most definitely take back with you.

Over the course of a morning, you will be shown how to boulder. It’s about technique, problem solving and the importance of spotting for your climbing partner. You’ll also learn about placement and use of the all-important bouldering mats.

By the end of this bouldering session in Bath, you’ll have an excellent grounding of the basics - and maybe boulder climbing will become a new outdoor hobby for you!
