Bouldering with kids
Boulderhal de Campus is built to welcome any newcomer, young and old! But it is important to know, however, that our gym is primarily home to grown-up climbing enthusiasts. To let all ages enjoy our gym safely, it's essential that an adult actively supervise children between the age of 7 and 14 at all times to prevent unaccompanied and inexperienced youth from causing or receiving avoidable injuries. Parents wanting a relaxing way to let their kids play will unfortunately not find what they're looking for here.
Youth aged 14 and older are welcome to enjoy our gym but must have previous bouldering experience and show respect for the safety regulations outlined by the gym.
All that aside, if you're looking for an exciting, active day out with the kids, then de Campus is the place to be! Bouldering is a challenging, playful sport that captures your child’s imagination (and drains their energy!). First timer? Join us in an introduction lesson. During this half-hour session, you and/or your little monkey will be introduced to this spectacular sport by an enthusiastic trainer, after which you are free to continue climbing on your own.
Interested youths (and parents!) are welcome to join us for a free introduction lesson (included in the entry fee).
