Climbing & Bouldering Centres in Liverpool

If you're after a climbing wall in Liverpool itself, the University of Liverpool Sports and Fitness Centre is the one on the books, close to the centre. It's a university sports hall rather than a dedicated bouldering gym, with a climbing and bouldering wall alongside a pool and sports hall, and it's open to junior and community climbers, not just students. Prices start from £2.25, which is hard to beat anywhere. It's a solid pick if you want indoor climbing without a long drive, and there's wheelchair access if that matters for your family. It won't have the themed routes or cafe buzz of a big commercial bouldering centre, but for a straightforward session with younger climbers it does the job, and the on-site pool and sports hall mean you can turn a climb into a longer visit if the kids aren't ready to stop.
