A brand new bouldering wall in Fort William. Over the winter and spring of 2008 we have added a small high quality bouldering wall to the facilities at Calluna. Check out what Dave Macleod has to say below.

....."I'm pretty psyched to announce that Fort William has a new indoor bouldering facility at Calluna (Alan Kimber's place). Alan's built a brand new building with accommodation for climbers and excellent bouldering walls. The wall was constructed over the winter by Scott Muir. Since late February, I have been setting the whole wall with over 60 problems from V0 to V11. It's got a main area with a large steep wall (37degrees over) and vertical and slabbed walls with an excellent campus board and fingerboard. Upstairs there is a superb little circuits cave with surprisingly long circuit problems on walls and roofs to get fit on".....

Also in the building are small areas to practice belaying and prussiking and a small lecture room for watching DVD's. Instructors visiting the area can rent the facility for a few hours to offer indoor talks. There is no requirement to actually stay at the accommodation in order to be able to use the facilities. The bouldering area is supplied with a sound system for your own music. Don't forget to bring your iPOD.

We also sell chalk, finger-tape and chalk bags as well as offering equipment and boot hire, summer and winter.
