About
The Wall
Here at Rock and Rapid Adventures, we are specialist providers of an exciting range of outdoor activities, courses and expeditions in the UK and overseas. Our friendly team of instructors are experienced, qualified and licensed to train and lead you, whether you are first time climbing, enjoying bouldering, taking part in women’s climbing sessions, or using our mobile climbing wall for events and school visits.
We run our jam-packed selection of adventure activities from our climbing centre in North Devon – which is the largest in the area. Whether you’re looking for a rock climbing taster session, an abseiling experience, a go on the low ropes or just a quick boulder, our climbing wall is the place to be!
Our climbing wall in North Devon features two professional auto-belays and 20 hangars for both top-rope and lead climbing. We also have a kids’ bouldering area, a bouldering cave and one of the most famous training boards in the UK!
Outside, we have a very popular low ropes course, loved by school groups and kids’ parties everywhere, and upstairs from the climbing wall we have a specialist abseiling platform where you can learn the techniques in a safe and secure environment. Our new 400 square metre boulder room is now open!
What our customers say...
As a family of five who like to try new things, I can’t recommend this enough. The staff member who helped us was top class. Friendly, accommodating and keen. Although, we were all at different levels of experience, some of us complete notices at climbing – we all managed to spend an enjoyable couple of hours.
Really good day out and cater for all levels of ability. As complete beginners we were a bit nervous to begin with but soon got up to speed. Very good value for money.
To arrange a weekend that is a bit different and feels special is becoming harder to do so it was refreshing ti find somewhere that was happy to listen to our thoughts and ideas and let us run with them. Had a fantastic weekend that combined indoor climbing, raft building challenged and a monster design and build task to product a melon flinging catapult in a morning on a budget of £100. All in a really good time had by all with very relaxed and friendly staff. Would recommend for arranging those vents that are a bit more specialised.
I have been climbing here on and off for almost 4 years now. I keep coming back. This is by far one of the most friendly, helpful and safe climbing centres I have ever been to. The staff are constantly on guard for any mishaps and are very approachable with any and all concerns Especially talking through hypothetical situations and scenarios. Their knowledge is current and at the highest level. Definitely a place to go, and keep going.
I started climbing here about a year ago and love the atmosphere and people I meet. Ladies might, on a Monday which is run by Simmo has become a weekly must. (the coffee is pretty awesome too.) Great instruction is given on technique including safety) plus games are put together to improve climbing ability. I bring my nieces here and they love it. It’s exercise without feeling like you’re i a gym. I can’t recommend it enough!
We visited this whole on our holiday on a rainy day, my son enjoyed it so much he wanted to go back so we did. Twice! The staff are super friendly and very knowledgable. We will no doubt be back next year!
