Visited at the weekend with my boyfriend, the staff were extremely friendly, they kitted us out with trousers, under layer, coat, gloves, hat, harness and boots! We went into the ice climbing area which was at -6 degrees. I found it extremely physically demanding as someone who struggles to lift their own body weight but the instructor was extremely patient,... More 

My son and I really enjoyed this experience. Mat who did our induction and instruction was really good with us. We got so much more out of his advice instead of employing our normal techniques for bouldering. It was a great and really enjoyable experience as Mat knew how to keep us tested. We did 5 different types of climbs... More

Discounts for return visits, and we... More

We visited for a friends birthday. It was physically challenging but great fun. Our instructor was great and we managed to reach the top. Bit expensive but worth it as it's different.

What an amazing experience? My son had this in his bucket list so I had to let him try. All the kit was included and Nathan the instructor had a ton of patience and knowledge. An hour of great fun for my son and he was truly shattered afterwards. A huge Thankyou to Nathan, who was an amazing instructor and... More 

I got bought an "Ice Climbing Experience" as a present and booked in a session at Vertical Chill Manchester. The wall itself is in the back of a climbing/arctic gear store, it's separated off by glass and the store serves as a viewing area which is a really cool idea. I had an hour session which included equipment hire, my... More
