EustonWall Climbing Centre

“Small but mighty. A climbing haven in the centre of corporate seriousness. From the moment you enter the centre you're greeted like a long lost friend, a sharer of the world's greatest secret, that climbing on a Monday morning is the best life choice ever. The coffee was delicious, the routes varied and interesting. The staff are so lovely, including the fabulous Lewis Parkinson who coaches here. They also have a kilter board which was super fun to try and make new friends whilst tackling crazy big moves and comparing back flags. If you're in London and you want to see what the fuss is all about.. go here!”

“First experience in a climbing gym within London. Staff is friendly and all “first time climbing at this gym” forms can be completed online. Entrance fee for peak time is quite steep. 18 euros. They have a small selection of drinks for sale. Change rooms are unisex, there are lots of lockers and it’s safe enough to have it without a lock. It’s a small but comfortable venue. It was peak time so it was slightly difficult to find a spot to sit and rest after a climb but everyone was generally quite friendly. Perhaps this is the convention in London, but I dislike the visual indicator of the grading system. You have to go up to each route to determine what V grade it is. Back home, we had coloured tape marking on each route to indicate the grade. There was more slab than overhang but there was a generous number of routes. There are shoes for sale and for rental. I borrowed the gyms liquid chalk as I didn’t travel with any. The biggest pro is how late it stays open!”

“EustonWall is a premier bouldering destination in Central London, lauded for its creative route-setting and sophisticated training facilities, including a Kilter Board. Its split-site design offers a vibrant, community-focused atmosphere. While exceptional for its proximity to Euston Station, visitors should prioritize off-peak hours to avoid the inevitable evening crowds.”

“Staff were helpful and friendly. The layout is nice with good amount of showers. This gym is split between two buildings and there is a good variety of different climbs for a London climbing gym.”
