Climbing in Manchester

Manchester has three climbing studios listed here, each in a different part of the city rather than clustered together. Depot Climbing Trafford, in Mosley, holds the highest rating of the group at 4.8, while Rock Over Climbing in Strangeways follows closely at 4.7. The third, East Manchester Leisure Centre in Beswick, rates 4.3 and sits within a public leisure facility rather than a dedicated climbing venue, which may suit those who prefer a more general sports setting. Because the three are spread between north, central and east Manchester, travel time is likely to matter as much as ratings when choosing between them. The page below sets out each studio with its area and rating, so you can compare locations and decide which is most practical for your own routine.
