Phenomenal. An outstandingly incredible experience - a wonderful induction with an 8 and 4 year old!
So good.
We wanted to introduce our family to climbing so took the 4 person rope induction - Áine was lovely and welcoming and Luke was fabulous. We started on walls, got into overhanging steps and up the full height.
Perfectly pitched to all in the party,ukr was fantastic with the kids and perfect for all. Our expectations were exceeded and a new fulfilling hobby sport found.
In regard to safety and professionalism, Luke was exceptional in attention to detail, attentiveness and support. We were so pleased and impressed.
Highly recommended.

Absolutely loved this place. Was our groups first time rock climbing and our instructor really helped up 3 of our group have been on a weightloss journey and last year we never would have been able for this but with the proper guidance and motivation we all made it to the top. Really fun for groups or solo and they are all about safety.

Booked a session here with a group, including two kids. I called to check if there were any special conditions for kids and the person on the phone (Adam) was super helpful, assisting me with booking our session over the phone. The whole experience at the centre was great. One of the kids was very nervous and our instructor devised a game to help his confidence (shoutout to Chris at Awesome Walls). We all had a blast, and will definitely be back!

Had my daughters 13th birthday party here. It was perfect, great for small groups as they had their instructor and had loads of time to try different walls while the rest watched and chatted. They loved it. Perfect for that age group as didn't want a party with the usual awful food and forced fun! Staff are so so lovely and great service. Thanks Awesome Walls.
S. L.
Such an awesome place. I went bouldering and the staff is so friendly and great atmosphere with other climbers. Will definitely be back.
S. Q.
They seem to have gotten a lot more money-grabbing in recent years which is very off-putting. The facilities are great but a pal who hasn't been in a few years has been told he has to do 100 euro induction. I brought my aunt and bf as they both have kids they wanted to climb with and they did the induction course and were both FAILED. This resulted in sad children and two adults that are supposed to pay to do the induction again in order to climb. Either the staff can train people effectively or not. Honestly, it's a figure 8. I was sorry I hadn't gotten a chance to teach them before we went. So advice, to train people yourself before going if you are an experienced climber wanting to bring friends for a taster session. I get that insurance is a big issue but I thought that was what disclaimer forms and maybe a quick demo of basic skills is for.
P. B.
This place is fantastic. We did the 1 hour teaser session with our instructor Chris. We had a fantastic time learning the basics and testing ourselves on the different climbs. Chris was brilliant, so patient with everyone and really encouraged the kids. I can't recommend this place enough. We will DEFINITELY be back.
K. N.
What an amazing climbing centre! Our instructor Colvin was the best, informative, approachable and made our day in Awesome walls fun and memorable
Definitely recommend a visit
M. B.
We went there for my 7 years old son who wanted to start climbing lessons...There is a lot of space with 3 levels of climbing walls available. My son loved his first lesson and want to go back.

biggest climbing gym in dublin with the tallest walls here. Great staff and great people within the climbing community
D. C.
Great to get back to the appropriately named Awesome Walls. Lots of work going on extending the climbing which is good news too 👍
A.
The name says it all. It's awesome! I did the induction course today to brush up my belaying skills and the instructor was excellent. Kids and I spent almost 4 hours climbing.
E. M.
Great climbing and friendly helpful staff.
Took my niece here for her first ever climbing session. The check in process was friendly and straight forward. She had a great day out. The facilities were great and the mix of beginner to advanced climbs on the main walls and in the vast bouldering area was exceptional. It is among the best indoor gyms I've been to anywhere in the world.
R. O.
Great climbing venue. New members must attend an induction and demonstrate correct belay technique.
under 18s can only be signed in by legal guardian or qualified RCI /CWI.
place deserves the name
T. H.
I regularly visit with my 2 kids who love it here. Staff are great and very helpful. I was very impressed with their insistence on a short period of re-training before admission after the long lockdown period. Thanks for your care!
B. C.
Place is tops 👌, great climbing fir all different levels staff are really friendly and helpful coffees not bad either
M. B.

Staff were friendly and professional. It was a fantastic experience for my children, I am sure we will go back again.
G. F.
Brilliant climbing, and thanks to our instructor Áine who was fantastic with our kids.
D. K.
This climbing gym gives you plenty of options to climb in bouldering and lead. There are couple autobelays on different walls. So you can come on your own and practice stamina and high wall. Weekends are quite busy. They are hosting birthday parties as well. Staff is friendly. I like the gear shop and a lovely caffe choises. As well there are area for kids to play around.
K. F.
Great selection of gears and shoes. Courtesy of great outdoors. Walls are awesome. Routes are being changed often. A lot of challenging climbs. Staff are amazing.
A. C.
One of the best experiences I've had. First of all I messed up our booking getting the time incorrect. We got there 30 minutes late. When we did get there we were surprised to hear they were able to shuffle a few things around to give us the full hour. Our instructor Aine was fantastic for people that had no climbing experience. Aine made us calm and she was encouraging too, we felt safe the whole time. I would reccomend coming here to anyone that is experienced or wanting to try something new.
P. C. (.
As the name suggests, awesome! Friendly staff and not too busy for picking various walls. 2nd time here and will be back again.
L. M. A.
Great climbing gym, 2 floors of bouldering and a lot of rope and lead climbing routes.
B. S.
I brought my family over Christmas and it was amazing fun, the instructor was brilliant with the kids and myself and we managed to climb many different sections and loved every minute. The facility was very clean, bright and the staff were all very friendly and we felt very safe the entire time.
I would recommend this to all and we will be back when we can.
c. b.
Great climbs great staff great atmosphere .. and we've been coming for about 8 years now!

Great place, great people. Good choice of things to do. Top rope, leading, bouldering etc. Cafe is also very nice. Highly reccomend.
F. L.
Never taught Id make it to the top.what a great experience with my 8 year old:)
D. E.
The best climbing gym in Ireland in my opinion. Great routes. Regularly changed and great variety of difficulties. Staff are very friendly and accommodating too!
A. G.
Great staff, the intro sessions are well run and the range of both bouldering and roped climbs means there's something for everyone. The coffee/ hot chocolate here is really good and so are the little cakes!
Price is great for what you get out of your time here
C. J.
Great lead climbing and bouldering for all abilities, the bouldering was better than expected . The atmosphere in the bouldering area was a bit dead though and the mats were very hard, not so nice to land on.
a. t.
I went with our two daughters 10 and 12 ,had a fantastic instructor in Aine ,great day went in too fast
m.
Had an hours Taster lesson - was absolutely brilliant - aiming to return soon!
A. T.

A. O.
A well run climbing center with safety and fun at it's core.
M. F. M. C.
Great place for climbing! kids love it. Great experience everytime we go.
P. G.
My son is 10 and he loves Awesome walls. The training is outstanding and the instructors are great with kids. All the staff are really friendly and very helpful. There is ample parking, there is refreshments in the shop, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, cakes. They offer climbing for beginners both kids and adults with all the equipment supplied, it's not just for the pros but they are good the watch. With a young kids play area having a coffee and relaxing is easy, there are tables and chairs or sofas with tables. My overall experience is excellent.
N. M. D.
Great place for the novice & experienced alike. Friendly professional staff, food available, parties catered for, small kiddies play area and free parking.. Go-on face your fears 😉..
T. F.
Amazing experience which gets the adrenaline seriously pumping. Claire was a lovely instructor and I would definitely recommend!
N. R.
Great that they have coloured roots for all abilities. Friendly atmosphere.
G. T.
Really excellent family experience. Sean was the perfect host and trainer and the kids really loved it. A few people who thought it was ok to not bother wearing a face mask would be our only complaint but it was fairly easy to avoid them. No hesitation in recommending!
N. O.
I started climbing here. Very friendly staff, amazing community. They will make you feel welcome instantaneously. If you want to start or try climbing - book an introduction session here. ASK FOR TERRY!!
M. F.
We had booked our daughters 11th birthday party before lockdown but obviously couldn't be held. We went last week instead. Awesome walls were great when I kept rearranging the date ( it is hard trying to liase with 5 parents as to dates etc etc !) They had such a fabulous time . The instructor was lovely . So encouraging to the girls -you can do it !!
Just brilliant. Would highly highly recommend this place .
D.
Great venue, facilities, etc. Relaxed Atmosphere. Lunch/picnic Tables & lockers as well as a small play area.
My child wasn’t such a fan of “The School of Rock” - too much waiting around (4 climbs) but was very happy bouldering / climbing on our own time.
Beware parties/groups etc taking over the walls - if your planning a day trip could be worth calling ahead to see what bookings are like for the day?
E. H.
Great experience. Kids loved it and thanks to Aine for a great lesson....
E. T.
I would like to recommend this place for birthday parties. Super easy to deal with and very professional. Once we arrived Ciaran took care of us and he was super nice, then Jess and Connor brought our kids for climbing. Jess was truly amazing, she was encouraging those who were not that confident, making it fun and all, giving all of them super experience. Connor, good luck with your audition!
You're paying for groups of 6 children, the first six for an hour is 90 and each additional 6 is 60. You can also book a party room for 45 min. You need to order your own food. They recommend and we used and were happy with the nearby Firehouse Pizza.
We liked it a lot, and my children planning to come back there soon!
C. K.
Really good fun and well priced. Great instruction meant I picked up a lot in just a short visit. Delivers exactly what's promised, and even a little more. Can't wait to go again.
D. B.
Had daughters birthday party here recently and very happy. The children all had a great time and I must acknowledge the attentiveness of the instructors, we always felt they were well looked after and the instructors had an eye to the group at all times, definitely would recommend
R. C.
My wife, daughter (8) and son (6) thoroughly enjoyed our taster session at the walls. We spent 6 hours climbing. It was the highlight of our year. It's a huge pity there isn't one of these in the west.
The kids climbed to the top of multiple walls. Our instructor Alice gave us a great session on how to climb on our own. All the staff were lovely. We brought some food with us and we're delighted we could eat it there. It's a lovely relaxed environment. We were there on a Monday which wasn't a bank holiday.
C.
This place is great for a rainy day/night but also place to hang out and challenge your friends. The bouldering walls are great and handy to get started with rock climbing. Staff are very chill and they update the walls regularly with different climbing routes. Highly recommend for all the family.
J. H.
Great staff. Very passionate and knowledgable and seem genuinely delighted to see new people learning to climb. Great confidence builder for young folk. I had planned to just learn how to belay my daughter but found myself at the top of a wall in no time. The only thing that irked me was how expensive it was but they offer plenty of options like membership rates and discounted access during off peak hours. If there were 6 stars available, they'd have earned it.
K. P.
Really friendly instructors, excellent place for people starting, really nice activity with co workers
G. Ó.
I’ve never had a bad experience here!! Staff are friendly and knowledgeable!
F. L.
Great climbing hall. Many options for all level of climbers. I took a four weeks course and it was great. The instructors were super nice, knowledgeable and fun. With the right amount of time I learned new techniques and knowledge.
Besides two floors of bouldering and big climbing walls, they also have a cafe style area and a small outdoor shop.
Overall a great place to go climbing and relaxing afterwards.
L. C.
My favourite place to climb in Ireland. Great staff, great climbs, and just a lovely atmosphere.
P. R.
I spend a lot of time here - I have twins who climb (a lot) & compete. Good spot - mix of bouldering & roped walls. Goid training room. Nice staff. Only down side is poor coffee - it's one of those press button jobbies. Fix the coffee & it's 10 /10 🤓
P. W.
I've come here with my two nieces many times so they could take part in the School of Rock kids climbing sessions. They love it. The instructors are very patient and helpful with the children. It's easy to book online. Lovely coffee for the adults while you're waiting around. Just be aware it can get a little chilly so wear layers.
R. A.
Nice staff, clean and tidy. Friends are members. It was our first time there. I felt like more of a first time climber incentive would benefit although we were not staying in the local area to be incentivised.
m. g.
was there for the great outdoors store well stocked with climbing gear ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
J. H.
Excellent facility. Very family and beginner friendly. There are a wide variety of routes (roped and boulder) with climbs updated regularly to keep the most keen climber occupied. I've never had a dull day here, full of great energy!
S. D.
Really excellent climbing centre located near Charlestown Shopping centre.
Staff are incredible, genuinely enthusiastic about helping people and always ready to answer questions.
They offer one-to-one tutoring for beginners, so whether you're an experienced climber, or just starting out, it's a great place to go.
3 floors of climbing, ground floor is for rope & belay, while the upper two have bouldering courses and training rooms.
There's a cafe, Firestone Pizza on order, and a large area to just relax in while you wait.
P. M.
I'd recommend booking before you go. We were very lucky to get a private climbing lesson at the last minute over the weekend. Reception staff were really helpful fitting us in. We had an excellent instructor, think his name was Dave. Very enthusiastic about it and made myself and the kids feel really safe despite one of the kids having a fear of heights. We'll definitely be back!
P. C.
Love this place, it's become my second home!
Awesome walls has loads of climbing for all ages and abilities, on both roped walls and boulders (which are reset really regularly). I'm still trying to try find time to climb it all! Would definitely recommend coming out for a visit, whether you're a complete beginner or have years of experience, it's the place to go climbing!
D. R.
Did the taster climbing session and went back for bouldering a few days later. Novice climber so not sure about the difficulty compared to other venues but I found varied and challenging options even available at the beginner level.
R. B.
I really enjoy this place. Great for a team building with friends, corporate event. If you want to come because you love climbing this is also the place for you, climbing routes change so you will never get board. If you want to get some instructions crew is also available. If you had never climbed ask for a taster session you will not be disappointed. And finally children, great place to bust their confidence but if you are not sure if they will like it or not organise a birthday party, it gives them some taste of adventure among their pals you never know they may just fall in love with it and join one of the youth groups. One way or the other satisfaction guaranteed.
N. K.
I love this place. Staff are really nice and it's one of few activities that myself, my wife and our kids can all do together. This is a fantastic facility and tonnes of fun even if my arms and chest ache afterwards.
P. M.
Excellent instructor!! Loved it.
C. B.
Great place for a kid's party. Also generally had a very nice relaxed atmosphere, even though busy, and very friendly staff. Lots and lots of walls for climbing and bouldering.
M. L.
I went in the mornings so it was lovely to virtually have the gym to myself. Just make sure to tell them you are only bouldering if that's the case. I didn't realise I got charged to use the whole gym until I got home after. Staff are lovely though.
T. C.
Kids loved the kids club. A nice small group so not loads of waiting for them. A good range of bouldering and enjoyed following the circuits. Cool training room for when you want the extra focus.
P. P.
Our group was one adult and one seven year old, we were complete beginners but had a really great, enthusiastic and encouraging instructor and we were soon flying up the walls. Great fun and a fantastic confidence builder for children, we can't wait to go back.
J. N.
Awesome walls literally is Awesome. The staff are friendly and helpful, the toilets are spotless and spacious for changing and the coffee is good and strong. Being someone who only took to this recently I love nothing more than to sit back and relax in a very chilled seating area and watch other more experienced climbers do their thing after my climbing is done. Right off the M50 it's handy for everyone! My only complaint is that I can't be there every day! Great job to all at awesome walls.
E. C.
We just had our 8 year olds birthday party there. The staff were great with the kids; they catered for all levels of ability without making them feel inadequate if they were scared or no good at climbing. Not a money grabbing venue either like some for children's birthday parties. All the kids had a great time and left in high spirits. All in all highly recommend this place.
A. K.
A friendly place with two floors of bouldering and several wall climbing routes, equipment/shoes rental, gear shop and a cafe. Great staff, walls are updated every few weeks, come for couple hours or enjoy the whole day there. The only thing it lacks in my opinion is a dedicated kids climbing zone (although it has a play area for under 5 year olds), so kids climb together with adults.
A. S.
Really awesome place! We've just had a bday party for our 12 years old and it was the best party ever. The staff was very patient, dedicated and just cool. The online booking process is very straight forward and takes just a few minutes. And I wasn't surprised by any hidden additional costs. Strongly recommended.
E. G.
We climb here very often and it is always a great experience. The focus from the team is great, random coaching interactions and overall approach. My Son attends NICAS and loves it, at 8yrs old he is focused on the challenge of achieving the levels and improving his technique which is the best outcome we could ask. This years NICAS summer camp was excellent and he came home exhausted and excited every day.
K. L.
Spacious bouldering & wall climbing place in Dublin with great facilities. There are two floors inside but the location is only convenient for people with their own transport though.
L. M.
1st Class Facility and 1st Class staff to go with it !
What more could you want ? A superb lead wall, so many angles of bouldering and a hard but accessible training room and enough coffee and cake to destroy all your hard work :)
Facilities and advice to help everyone from first time kids at a birthday party, competent climbers and parents wanting a coffee!
Can't recommend it highly enough for birthdays, training, social climbing, shopping and coffee drinking.
Get down and enjoy it ASAP !
I. M.
Excellent adventure! Experienced and lovely staff that will take care of you in any circumstances. Security is top notch and I think everybody should try it at least once ! 5/5.
E. C.
Would highly recommend Awesome Walls to anyone as it is a brilliant place to work on fitness and training and it is also a lot of fun! The staff are very friendly and helpful!
I found for birthday parties the instructor ratios were great which allowed plenty of climbing to wear the little ones out!
C. N. F.
One of the warmer climbing gyms which means a lot to me!! Good routes, it's a bit of a hassle to get to if you dont drive but it's a great wall. Good coffee too!
W.
Only bouldered. Nice variety of slabs and overhangs / caves. Good problems (especially the black set while I was there) though some colours (yeah, you Pink) are very limited in the hold variety and look for the same skill set over and over. Registration process is torturous, with the touch pads extremely unresponsive and slow. Most of the hire shoes are so chunky they're more like trainers, barely a climbing shoe. The worse I've seen anywhere. They need to be chucked. Had some decent ones but in limited sizes. Good enough but could do better.
R. R. K.
AW is a great place to work on your training. They offer bouldering zone, top rope, automatic belay, lead climb and definitely the best gym room I've seen in Dublin. Staff is very helpful and friendly. I like the atmosphere in the center - so easygoing. I'd definitely recommend this place.
A. C.
Thoroughly enjoyable experience. My daughter (8) asked could we go here as she had done something similar but smaller on a school trip. I ended up being roped in also and the cost was €45 for the 2 of us. For this we had a personal guide/tutor for about an hour. Stephen went through all the basics with us and within minutes we were climbing walls. Very helpful and insightful about the activity and had us at ease climbing. He showed us the bouldering afterwards and gave us a brief tour of the facilities before we left. We will definitely be back soon. Wasnt sure what to expect but we really enjoyed the time. All the staff seemed so into the job/activity that Im sure all people get a similar experience. 5 Stars.
N. O.
I was introduced to Awesome walls by my sister when she suggested we do something a bit different. I was immediately hooked! Everything about the place keeps me coming back for more. There is a huge variety of climbing to get involved with from top roping, lead climbing and bouldering. And routes that suit all levels of skill. The staff are another reason why this is such an amazing venue, they are all extremely friendly and helpful. Go along and give it a try, you won't regret it!!
S. G.
Am a regular user of Awesome Walls. It is an absolutely amazing facility, especially when it's right next to the M50. The staff are excellent and friendly and always willing to give advice. Great Outdoors have a shop dedicated to climbing there as well.
E. Ó. M.
Great facility, A great spot whether you are new to climbing and looking for an activity or are an experienced climber training to improve. They also have a kids play/bouldering area that my 3yr old loves.
T. B.
A excellent mix between boulder and wall climbing. Staff is really nice !
I'm really happy I've joined as a member.
Really good variety of level/difficulty.
b.
Lives up to the name, awesome place to go, super friendly staff, very good tutorship. Massive amount of bouldering and top road and lead climbing.
D. F.
Can be super active or relaxing depending on whether you participate or spectate. Either way super enjoyable experience. Plenty of walls and routes to choose from, walls changed every week. Staff super. Lots of choice for food and shop!
C. R.
Great place for adults and kids alike, its supposed to be for children aged 6 and above, if you have children this age and they are particularly energetic its perfect.
A. C.
Staff are lovely, climbing is fun
P. C.
Was there today for my daughter's 8th birthday with a couple of her friends. They really enjoyed it and their instructor Oisin was really great with them!
k. s.
Very well organised birthday party. The boys had super time! The place is safe, fun and educational. Used the recommended pizza company to deliver pizza after climbing. Right on time delivery, yummy pizza.
A. S.
Always clean and well managed. It can get quite busy with kids at parties, especially on a Sunday afternoon/evening. The atmosphere is friendly and supportive and the staff are very helpful whenever they can be
S. R.
There's such a variety of courses, from climbing to bouldering. The staff are always very helpful, easy to get to. And accommodates all levels of climbers. Plus it has a great outdoors shop onsite which proves very handy 👍👍
D. M.
Top rope climbing, lead climbing or bouldering this place is excellent! Anyone interested in climbing will know this is the best climbing facility in Ireland. The staff here are extremely friendly and helpful
s. k.
Great spot great staff amazing climbing experience
D. R. P.
I couldn't recommend a place more. Lovely atmosphere, staff and climbers are very helpful and positive. For climbers at all stages. Membership is great value.
J. C.
Awesome experience kids loved it , so pleased with it 😀
d.
Excellent place. Really safe, excellent tutors who encouraged and helped. All ages can take part and enjoy it. Can really recommend it
R. M.
Awesome, pub intended, location. Great staff, nice little snack area and equipment shop. Well done routes updated regularly for bouldering, top rope and lead climbing routes. Multiple locations for automatic belayers for the solo visiter.
L. R.
Visited for BlocStock 2017 and absolutely loved the event. The centre itself is very impressive. Great balance between bouldering and roped climbing too, unlike Awesome Walls Cork (which has very little bouldering). Looking forward to next visit.
M. C.
Just visiting from England and needed a place to train. Staff were really friendly and very enthusiastic. Huge bouldering area and good training room. Will definitely be going again next time I'm in Dublin.
C. T.
My daughter started climbing in the kids club and now has just started the NICAS. The staff have been v.helpful, and answered all of our questions. They are great with my daughter which was most important for me. Plenty of walls to climb and groups kept small allowing them all time to get instruction and plenty of time actually on the wall. Equipment hire was great, as is the little shop. So helpful. Tea, coffee, coke, cakes, toasties and fruit etc available from reception, plus a water fountain. Plenty of seating for the parents to wait and watch, high chairs available for the littlies and even sockets to charge your phone/laptop/Kindle. Plus a bookshelf full of books if you fancy a read while you wait. Huge place and my daughter loves it. Plenty of parking and it's free to park.
d. d.
Was my first time climbing. It was really awesome! 1 hour is more than enough but when i finished i wanted more😅💜
J. G.
The best place around Dublin for indoor climbing. "The Wall" in Sandyford is also quite good for bouldering, but this place offers more options, not just bouldering, is very big and well kept. I highly recomend it.
R. W.
Been to a few climbing walls round Dublin, if you live North Side this is the best place to go. Decent variety and friendly staff. Prices are ok apart from an irritating one time €8 member fee? But after that, the monthly membership is fairly decent value.
W. C.
A really good setup and friendly, helpful staff. However, the bouldering crash pads are way too hard and should be replaced. I've climbed in gyms all over the world and these are not consistent with the standard.
b. d.
Very professional set up. Highly recommend. Kids had a great time and the instructor Shane was very professional and patient with the kids. We will be back for sure
s. r.
Super friendly staff and deadly set up
J. L.
This is the biggest climbing facility in ireland.It has walls with lots of rutes to enjoy, great bouldering area and training room. It is a pitty it is so far away from city center.Even if you take a bus, you have to walk for 20 minutes. Lots of parking space if you are driving.
N. G.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 1 hour lesson at AW on Saturday. We were greeted with a warm friendly smile from Eamon who quickly and precisely showed us the ropes. Even after the lesson, when we were practising on our own, Eamon kept a close eye on us to ensure our safety!
A great way to pass a few hours is guaranteed at AW. Cheers Eamon.
S. C.
Great spot to boulder, lead and have a bit of craic
P. K.
Great place to spend a few hours, and good way to get rid of excess energy. Adults and children are catered for, and you can either climb or boulder. Good coffee shop as well.
K. S.
Would give it a perfect 5 rating if mask wearing was mandatory for all climbers. Very few members wore masks
S. E. S.
This place is amazing and Eamon is a star! In one hour we knew what we should do to stay safe and enjoy ourselves for the rest of the day. I've never done it before in my life and still had so much I know I will do it again as soon as possible. Thank you guys, High Five for the atmosphere :)
I. D.
I have a six years old boy who loves going for the two hour kids club session. Awesome Walls, it's in the name. It's not just for children, it's a very addictive sport for us grownups :)
Give them a call, I promise you will be going back for seconds 👍
S. M.
Always a good time at Awesome Walls.

For indoor rock climbing in Dublin this is the best place to go. At the time of writing this it has the highest indoor walls in Ireland. It has top/bottom rope walls and some have self belays so if you want to go out yourself you can give it a try. They also have 2 floors of bouldering if that's more what you're into and a training room as well. They have a basic cafe and a shop on site to buy all the gear you could want/need but for people new to climbing you can rent all the gear needed. The staff are friendly and helpful and full of knowledge. The only one slight downfall I have found is there is no showers on site which would be a nice bonus but most climbing walls in Ireland don't have them. But all round would highly recommend it to anyone new or experienced in climbing.
I. G.
One of the best indoor sport climbing gym in Ireland.
L. M.
The climbing section of the party was excellent. The staff were very helpful and kind to the 8 years olds there. However be warned - the 'party room' is literally that - a ROOM - we had forgotten to bring cups for drinks and these could not be provided. I even offered to buy the cardboard coffee cups they had but that wasn't possible. The absolute insult to injury was being made to BUY a lighter to light the birthday candles! Paid for 12 children to climb and hire the party room and we were made to buy a lighter? It was extremely poor and left a really bad taste in our mouths I'm afraid.
P. M.
Brilliant time here with my best friend on her birthday. Had a intro lesson with Dave and he spends near 3 hours with us! Then we had as long as we want to enjoy the place!

Still Ireland's best climbing wall. If you live in Dublin and are interested in climbing and bouldering, it offers both under the one roof. The common areas have recently been revamped. At the moment they are also building a "fake" rock wall. This looks very impressive and is due to open soon.
C. M.
Sweet spot for rock climbing of all abilities. Great routes throughout the centre both bouldering and roped climbing. Another thumbs up for the instructor Eamon.
I. D.
Great facility, good variety of routes, grades are very soft but fun nonetheless once you adjust 2 up to get into your level.
J. L. L.
Fantastic facility with friendly helpful staff
A. T.
Awesome Walls really is awesome! Great facilities, friendly staff and an amazingly friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to take up a new sport or just go for an hours fun up and down the walls.
H. S.
Good entry prices, especially good if you’re a member. The shop inside is well stocked and the staff are always friendly. Great selection of routes on the walls.
F. V.
The staff is nice and attentive. It was fairly easy listening to their instructions. The courses are very cool and they have different difficulties tagging from beginner to expert.
A. K.
Everything you need from bouldering to climbing (they have an automatic beeline if you come solo) plenty of people around who will jump in if you need anything. There is a small shop as well with all the essential equipment
J. B.
Is great for people who have sporty needs.
When you walk in the front door, you are greeted by the staff at the desk. You have the option to make a account and a membership. When you are all ready to go they give you a harness and the option to learn how to use it. Then you are ready to go and do it yourself.
J. B. B.
The rope climbing is quite good, but 10€ for hiring a rope is expensive. The grades seem to be on the soft side, but consistent (based on 8 routes in the 6a-7b range only)
M. R.
Multiple high climbing walls and 2 bouldering floors at various difficulty levels. Top rope, bottom rope, automatic belay and super supportive stuff. Greatly recommending.
e. g.
The staff are really experienced and super friendly, and the facilities are fantastic. I would highly recommend this to young and old, beginner to experienced, there is something for everyone. To sum it up....AWESOME!
A. D.
All very safe with instructors. Lots of wall climbs from beginners to experienced. Adults and kids will enjoy. .
A. M.
3 of us had a lession with the amazing Osian last night, we loved it. Two of us were first timers and with Osians guidance managed to reach the top of all the high walls. Great place to come for a night out with friends. We will be back.
Thanks guys
D. K.
Great indoor activity for the kids and kid like adults
A. F.
One of the largest climbing centers in Ireland. They have a wall for everybody. Staff and people are friendly and there's lots of snacks on site.
B. B.
Gym has top rope and lead climbing on the ground floor. Also several self-belay stations which is a also good training for doing a lot of reps. The upper two floors have bouldering areas, with the top area featuring large elements. There also is a training room with weights and campus boards and so on. Gear and clothing in a well sorted shop. Coffee and snacks are available at the reception and staff is friendly.
4 out of 5 stars as changing rooms / showers are missing and cannot compare to some of the modern facilities across Europe.
Still the place to go when in Dublin!
S. R.
Great variety of routes, the pizzas decent coffees good, so are their tray bales excellent mix of bouldering and lead climbing options, and great gear shop
W. L.
Went to AW last Saturday with my 10 year old son. Had a great experience with Chloe who gave showed us the ropes with a 1 hour intensive training in various walls.
J. G.
Had my eldest son's birthday party here. An hour's climbing with an instructor and they had a fantastic time. A month later and they're all still taking about it.
T. B.
Had a great time friendly staff. Place was packed. I think that some people where a little centered on there own thing and not think about others. But hey that's people. Love the walls and had an amezing time.
G. J.
Great staff and great place to boulder
D. F.
Took my daughter here one Sunday morning to let her try out the climbing experience. Thought it was very good, professional set-up.
F. U.
I thought the rock climbing was scary at first but then I overcame my fear of heights and tried it for the first time and it was so great. You should try and rock climb too depending if you want to do it.
S. L.
Awesome walls is great. They provide a great service with bouldering and roped climbing, also a store for gear and some food and drinks!
M. M.
Hi group! :D (Y)
My name is Marcelo and I going to live & to stud in Dublin octuber 6, I love a good hiking, trekking to know different places and make friends.
I've already climbed some of the biggest Brazilian mountains and I am looking for some places to make good Trekking in Dublin or near Dublin.
I Don't have lot of experience in Rock climbing.
I'm taking with me all my climbing and trekking equipment.
Maybe I'll practice climbing in Awesome Wall when I get to Dublin
Although my English is basic still, I can speak Spanish or Portugues very well. If somebody is interested in follow me on walks or Trekking or Climbing to visit other places together, It would be great ;) (Y)
Good wind for all us!

Totally in love !!!! First time I thought this was a bit too expensive but actually it is totally worth every euros !! You have do much to do and you can progress from so much, between the big wall, to the bouldering rooms and training room to the fake rock !!!!
p. d.
