General rules

 

Everyone is welcome to come and climb with us, even if you have no experience.

Entry is only permitted with a valid ticket: a day pass, a multi-visit pass or a membership.

If you climb without a valid ticket, a fine of €50 may be imposed.

 

We offer discounts for youth under18, residents of Ghent, and members of the Bleau Climbing Team via KBF. To receive this discount, we ask for your ID card or your KBF membership card for verification.

This also applies to the discount via the Uitpas.

 

Warm up properly before starting your climbing session.

A cool-down after your session is also essential to prevent injuries.

 

Climbing without shoes is prohibited. You must climb in proper, tight fitting shoes. The use of climbing shoes is not obligated but is recommended. You can hire climbing shoes for €4; wearing socks is mandatory.

Do not enter the toilets whilst wearing climbing shoes.

 

Eating is not permitted on the mats.

Please use chalk sparingly.

 

Do not drink alcohol before or during climbing.

The entire climbing hall, including changing rooms and bar, is a smoke-free zone.

 

​

Safety

 

Be aware of your surroundings; do not walk underneath other climbers and keep a safe distance (1.5 metres).

Do not run in the gym. Lying down or playing on the mats is also prohibited.

 

Do not wear jewellery or carry items such as a chalk bag on your back whilst bouldering.

Always place your chalk bag, brushes, etc. next to the mat.

 

Climbing down is better than jumping down. The blue holds with the Rhino logo will help you with this.

If you do fall or jump, land flat on both feet and bend your knees. Keep your arms in front of or beside your body. Roll along if you fallfrom a height.

Amir explains it in this video.
