Awesome Walls
Back
Awesome Walls Climbing Centre (AWCC) first opened its doors in 1996 as 'The Climbing House' in a small back street unit in Bootle, Liverpool. Three years later we moved premises to St Albans Church. Now AWCC's can proudly state that it has two of the largest indoor climbing centres in England. We have always strived to offer the best indoor climbing experience - friendly staff, interesting routes, centre cleanliness, frequent route changing and a good atmosphere has helped us create two unique climbing centres that we are very proud of. As testimony to our success, our dedicated and growing customer base has made us what we are today.
We will strive to offer an environment that caters for all abilities, whether it's a beginners first time or a hot shots training ground.
Whether you climb at Liverpool or Stockport we hope you have an 'Awesome' experience.

When a friend recommended ‘Awesome Walls Climbing Centre’ to me for a Birthday Party I was initially clueless as to what ‘Awesome Walls Climbing Centre’ was! Do a quick search on the internet she told me, so I did. After a flick through the photo gallery I was astonished that a facility like this exists and they allow children to use it!!! I quickly located the contact details and phoned for a chat to find out a bit more. After a five minute call I’d booked my child’s party for ten, being offered free certificates, invites and guaranteed a awesome time, what more could I ask for?
The big day arrived soon enough and the ten eager (some slightly apprehensive) children entered the magnificent ‘Engine House’ at Pear Mill that holds what is ‘Awesome Walls Climbing Centre’.
We were greeted by Tom who was one of our instructors for the session (super friendly Claire was the second instructor). He quickly made everyone feel at ease and explained how the climbing session would be run. It was at this point I realised that I would love to try it but today is for the kids, ‘I’ll be back’.
Once all the harnesses were fitted we made our way to the Traverse Wall were you climb sideways along a short wall just above the ground. Tom explained that this will get everyone warmed up and used to the shapes and feel of the holds. Five minutes later the Traverse was conquered and they were eager for more.
In the roped area the walls go from 6m to a whooping 23.5m, we started on the 6m wall. The rest of the session saw everyone climbing walls of varying angles and heights and having an Awesome Experience. Whilst the kids were climbing many of the parents sat in the gallery cafe drinking fresh coffee and eating Awesome Muffins watching the fun below.
It’s now two months since the party and I’ve done my ‘Taster Session’ were I learned the rope work and other tricks of the wall that are required and my son is a regular member of the ‘Little Angles’ Climbing Club.
