Climbing Groups Melbourne

Saturday Climb

An afternoon at Urban Climb, Blackburn! If you haven't been to this gym before, you will need to do an induction. This gym also has a bouldering area. We typically start with a warm-up session from 2:00 to 2:30 PM before moving on to top-rope or lead climbing - through you’re welcome to start top-rope or lead as you prefer. If you’re looking for the host, they will be in bouldering area during the warmup. You can also spot the host on climbing wall, easily recognizable by a dangling ducks hanging from their harness.

Indoor Rock Climbing (Urban Climb Blackburn ) - First-time to Advanced

**Urban Climb Blackburn** Never climbed before? No worries at all! You're very welcome here! Just complete a quick safety induction when you arrive and the staff will walk you through everything you need to know to climb safely indoors. It's easy, friendly, and won't take long. The venue has plenty to enjoy, including a bouldering cave, speed wall, sauna facilities, and sparkling water to keep you going. This group is primarily focused on rope climbing, top roping and lead climbing, but if you'd prefer to stick to bouldering while you find your feet, that's absolutely fine too! Many of our members have their lead pass and gear, but there's no pressure at all. **Finding us:** If you arrive on time, look for us gathered around the couches in the bouldering area. We're a friendly bunch, so just come and say hi! Running a little late? No stress, just let the staff up the front know you're with the Climb Meetup group and they'll make an announcement. Someone will come and find you and introduce you around. A few of our regulars also wear a black shirt with the old logo, so keep an eye out for those. **A note on numbers:** The meetup runs every Monday and many regular members come along independently without RSVPing through the group, so the crowd is often bigger than it looks on the attendee list! If you're ever unsure whether people will be there or worried it might be a tiny group, feel free to drop the organisers a message beforehand and we'll put your mind at ease. **Fees:** Entry is paid directly to Urban Climb. You can find current pricing at [urbanclimb.com.au/pricing](https://urbanclimb.com.au/pricing/). If you hold a climbing membership elsewhere, it's worth checking your member benefits as you may be eligible for a discount. For venue info and the first-time waiver, visit [urbanclimb.com.au/locations/blackburn](https://urbanclimb.com.au/locations/blackburn/). **Stay connected:** We also have a facebook group [https://www.facebook.com/groups/663576119053808](https://www.facebook.com/groups/663576119053808) with a chat function; a great way to connect with members before or after a session!

I strongly recommend smaller hike style tents rather than larger family style tents. I will bring a gazebo and some tables and some gas stoves which you can use if you would like. I have a couple of tents and inflatable mattresses which I can lend to people if they don't have them. Let me know in the comments what you need. **CAMPING FOOD:** Bring your own food/drink for the weekend. WOMBATS: do NOT store food in your tent. You may end up with a furry visitor and a wrecked tent. There is a shop selling food, drinks, etc at the campsite. The nearest supermarket is a long way away. **About Tidal River, Wilsons Prom** Tidal River at Wilsons Promontory National Park offers an unforgettable camping experience nestled between granite mountains and the edge of Norman Beach. Camping at the Tidal River Campground provides modern comforts like hot showers, flushing toilets, and a nearby general store. Wombats and kangaroos often wander right through the camping grounds, giving visitors a wonderful chance to see local wildlife up close. Beyond the campsite, a vast network of walking tracks lets you explore the stunning coastal wilderness of "The Prom". You can take an easy stroll along the wheelchair-friendly Loo-Errn boardwalk or hike up Mount Oberon for panoramic views over Bass Strait. Every trail rewards you with pristine white quartz beaches, lush rainforest gullies, and hidden rocky coves # 🎒 What to Bring for the WALKS Water, snacks, weather‑appropriate clothing, comfortable shoes, sunscreen/hat, and any personal items you need.
