Go Rock-Climbing Inside this Edinburgh Church

For all you rock-climbing enthusiasts out there, or just those who want something new and fun to experience in a unique setting, then we have a great activity to add to your stack. Visit this rock climbing centre inside a repurposed Church building in the seaside town of Newhaven for a great day out in Edinburgh.

Alien rock is housed inside the shell of an old church building, with spaces to climb for everyone from complete beginners all the way up to seasoned climbers. Each section is colour coded to mark the difficulty of the route, so novices can ease their way into things while veterans can challenge themselves by using the excellent roof overhanging route. Alien rock would make an exciting start to a night out for a stag/hen do, which can be arranged by calling the number listed below.
