For all those in the UK’s North East looking for new problems to climb, you’ll be please to hear that the Newcastle climbing wall as been open for a week, and doing very well!
Climb Newcastle
Previously a derelict swimming pool, the Climb Newcastle centre will be based just outside Newcastle’s city centre, in Byker – what is now the first dedicated climbing centre in Newcastle. The building that’s been used spans 3 floors and is quite a turn around to the state that it was in prior to the regeneration.
