Outdoor gear rental
If you’re looking to head outside for some real rock climbing but you’re lacking some essential gear, we’ve got you covered. We rent out a selection of climbing gear for outdoor use, and we offer a scaled discount for multi-day rental:
Please tell us what gear you would like (including how many of each item) and for how long you would like to rent it (please include the start and end date of the rental period).
When you collect the gear, we will ask you to fill out a secure waiver with your credit/debit card details that will be deleted upon return of the gear. Please note that we ask for a R200 deposit that will be refunded upon safe return of the gear. The gear must be returned in the same condition as it was rented; late return penalties apply, and a replacement fee must be paid in the case of badly damaged or lost gear.
I’ve been to the shop to buy gear for my aerial fitness studio, but this is actually the first time I climbed. It was so much fun. I loved it! The staff are friendly and helpful, they really know their stuff. I can see this is a nice community, the climbers are super friendly too. The Vegan sandwich I had was super tasty. All in all a great experience and a super fun day “out” 🤩😍

What an amazing experience! It was a lot of fun and a great day. I would recommend it to anyone that wants to try it. It is quite physical especially on your fingers and forearms but they do have various difficulties for anyone to try out. It’s a lot of fun to go for the day and to try out all the different climbs.

Amazing Experience, the staff are well trained and super polite, their equipment is in great condition, place is extremely clean. Even the vibe is so nice, a must visit for both experienced climber and first timers ! Will be going back frequently!

Hundreds of routes, big bouldering area, new routes every week, a big gear shop, clean and professional. The best climbing gym in South Africa and a truly world class standard.
Jurgen Strydom
Love this place. Nice people, healthy environment and excellent exercise. I am surprised more people haven’t cottoned on to what a great activity indoor climbing is. There is a gym, yoga and pilates and climbing in one venue plus coffee. All this for a monthly comparable with your local gym.
