Arethusa Climbing wall
November 10, 2013, 09:43:53 am
Good morning Folks.
I'm wondering if anyone on here is lives in kent/south east and has visited Arethusa climbing wall in the last couple of months?
The info on the website hasn't changed since it closed down.
It did reopen for Tuesday nights a while back.
The page on ukc has incorrect information and nobody answers the phone on the times it is supposed to be open.

Just wondering if it is closed for good now?

very slow reply, but arethusa is open currently monday and tuesday evenings 5.30-10. (will be open monday, tuesday, wednesday, friday, saturday from mid march)

Lots of redevelopment, new traverse wall outside, new mats inside, most of the wall has been ply'd now and the routes are getting regularly changed.

hope thats of some help.
