RATHO CLIMBING ARENA

Bring a long rope!

The Rock Climbing Centre incorporates the largest climbing arena in the world, offering 2400m2 of artificial wall surfaces including over 400m2 of bouldering and training. This incredible facility will include the only covered climbs on natural rock anywhere in the world, and is expected to draw climbers and competitors to its events and climbs from Europe and beyond.

The walls will provide teaching and training areas for rock climbing in all its forms (including World Cup competition), and will cater for climbers of all abilities - from beginners through to elite competitors.

The bright and spacious design of the hall results in a cliff-like ambience. The company awarded the contract to build the walls, achieved the best mix of high tech expertise, climbability, and aesthetics.
