Flashpoint Swindon

Flashpoint Swindon is a massive bouldering centre in east Swindon, designed for first-time climbers, team GB athletes and everyone in between.

Bouldering is low-level climbing above soft matting; therefore, there are no ropes or belaying. Pick a boulder, climb up the route of your choice and try to reach the final hold before climbing back down using any coloured hold and safely jumping off near the bottom.

Children of all ages are welcome to climb at Flashpoint Swindon. There is even a bespoke room of lower climbing walls designed specifically for children! Check out the kids’ clubs where skilled coaches run sessions with groups, running them through the NICAS syllabus and moulding them into little rock-climbing crushers.

Children will need to be supervised while climbing in the centre until they are competent and older than 14 years.

Please see Flashpoint Swindon’s website for opening times and other details before visiting.
