Let's meet up and climb!

This is a sociable group for all levels of climbers, so long as you can tie in & belay safely. It's a great way to meet new people and get into the sport!

WHO CAN CLIMB?
Please note for the safety of our meetup members, this event is open to climbers who can belay competently, and are already registered with Alien Rock (or able to register with reception on arrival, which may include demonstrating knots or safe belaying techniques).
If you are new to climbing and can't yet belay then why not come along to Bloc on Wednesdays where no previous experience is required or book onto a beginners course at Alien Rock.
If you do not know how to belay then please do not attend.

FINDING US
Many of the regulars will be sporting an Edinburgh Climbing Club T-Shirt in Black, Blue, or Yellow. Come say hello!
If you are new to this group please join the group chat, comment on the event page, or send a message to the organisers so we can look out for you when you arrive.
Reception can usually point us out but people often arrive at different times and it can be hard to find people when you first arrive. Please post in the chat or comment on the event page what you are wearing and when you are likely to arrive to facilitate us all meeting up. Once you know a few faces we're easy to find!

GROUP CHAT
There is a Telegram group for the Friday sessions. Telegram is like WhatsApp but more secure and doesn’t share your phone number with the entire group unless you want it to.

POST-CLIMB FUN
Most of us head along to the Starbank Inn around 9 pm and have a drink, play cards, etc. During the summer some of us go for a quick post-climb swim/dip in the sea and hang out on the beach at Wardie Bay with a drink and/or chips .

COST
The standard admission price is £11 which you pay on arrival. More information can be found on the website: www.alienrock.co.uk
Rock climbing shoes can be hired there on arrival for £3.00. Please bring comfortable clothes to climb in.

DISCLAIMER
Please note this is NOT an instructed session. You take part at your own risk and you are responsible for your own safety. Climbing can result in injury and neither Alien Rock nor the Edinburgh Climbing group accepts any liability for any injuries or loss.
