| CLIMBING
Phasels Climbing Complex is a spectacular outside climbing structure
of 14 faces with the real crag feel. Individual climbers or groups
can use the wall with their own climbing equipment. Phasels Wood
has equipment which can be hired hourly by Scouts, Guides youth
groups and schools. When using Phasels equipment two instructors
are required for a group of no more than 18 per session. Two additional
adults from your group are needed to help with harnesses and to
supervise the children not engaged on the activity. If providing
your own instructors, they must have the appropriate authorisation.
This tower is approved for use by Girlguiding UK and GG Level 1
instructors are available.
The
wall is a challenge to both beginners and experienced climbers.
The total climbing surface is 440sq meters including a 36 metre
girdle traverse. No booking is required if you have your own equipment.
