Christmas Gift Ideas for Climbers (and Would-Be Climbers)

Buying for a climber is harder than it looks. They already have shoes they love, a chalk bag they will not part with, and strong opinions about kit. And buying for someone who has always wanted to try climbing is harder still. Here are some gift ideas from The Pinnacle that work for both.

1. A Pinnacle Gift Card

A Pinnacle Gift Card can be spent at The Pinnacle Climbing Centre or The Pinnacle Bouldering Centre, on climbing sessions, courses, or clothing and kit from The Pinnacle shop. You choose the amount and they choose how to use it. Buy a gift card online.

2. A 3 Week Beginners Course

For a friend who keeps saying they would like to try climbing. Over three two-hour sessions they learn to tie in, belay and move on the wall, and they get three free entries afterwards. The course costs £100. See the Beginners Course.

3. A 10-Visit Pass

For someone who already climbs regularly. A 10-Visit Pass is £120, valid for six months and covers both Pinnacle venues, so they can mix roped climbing and bouldering. Buy a 10-Visit Pass online.

4. A membership

For a keen climber. Our 3 Month Pass is £200 with no setup fee, and the Annual Pass is £660, the best value option for anyone climbing every week. Compare memberships.

5. RockeeZ Kids Club

For a child who enjoyed a climbing party or holiday camp. RockeeZ is our weekly kids climbing club for ages 7 to 16, from £42.50 a month, and the £35 setup fee includes a RockeeZ T-shirt and hoodie they can unwrap on Christmas morning. Find out about RockeeZ.

6. Kit from The Pinnacle shop

Both centres have a gear and shoe shop, and a Gift Card can be spent on clothing and kit. If you are not sure what size or style to buy, a Gift Card lets them choose in person.
