🛹 SKATEPARK UPDATE 🛴

For years, condensation has caused frustrating closures at our skatepark, particularly during colder weather.

We’re now trying something different!

Instead of closing the entire park, we’re introducing barriers around areas affected by condensation, allowing other sections to remain open where it’s safe to do so. We know it’s not a perfect solution, and there will still be times when a full closure is necessary. But we’re taking positive steps to make at least some of the park available, more often.

We will still use social media to provide up to date info about what parts of the park are open. If the park isn't fully open, the entrance price will be lower.

Our priority remains your safety, while giving you as much riding time as possible.

Thanks for your patience and support as we make these changes!

🧗 Harness on. Rope ready. Time to climb.

There's something incredibly satisfying about looking up at a climbing wall and thinking:

"I'm getting to the top of that."

With routes for different abilities, there's always a new challenge waiting at The XC.

How high will you get?

🧗 No ropes. No harness. Just you and the wall.

Bouldering is climbing stripped back to basics — short routes, different challenges and plenty of opportunities to try, fall off, rethink it and try again.

Never tried it before? Everyone starts somewhere.

Come and have a go at The XC. 💚
