Young Climbers

At Boulder Exe, we welcome young climbers aged 7+ to experience the thrill of bouldering. With accessible routes, expert coaching, and youth programmes in partnership with Quay Climbing, we’re here to help you build confidence, skills, and a love for climbing.

Climbing Together: A Space for Young Climbers

Bouldering is booming! As one of the UK’s fastest-growing sports, it’s inspiring a new wave of young climbers to get hooked on the walls. The incredible performances of young athletes on the Olympic stage have only added to the buzz. Why not join the movement and see what it’s all about?

What's On Offer

If you’re aged 7 or older, there are plenty of ways to start your bouldering journey at Boulder Exe:

  • Climb with a supervising adult: bring along a family member or friend to supervise you as you climb. They’ll sign you in as a supervised climber, and together, you can explore the centre’s walls and challenges.
  • Join a Youth Programme: designed for climbers aged 7-17, our youth programmes—run with Quay Climbing—follow accredited schemes like NICAS and NIBAS. They’re perfect for building confidence, mastering techniques, and having fun along the way.
  • Step into our Development Squads: for ambitious young climbers, our squads provide pathways to hone skills and prepare for competition at local, regional, and national levels.

Whatever your goal, Boulder Exe has a space for you to explore, challenge yourself, and climb higher. Ready to begin?
