WMC members are spread over a wide area and use a variety of walls, with greater use during the winter when it’s less favourable to get outside during the week.
Check on the Facebook group and WhatsApp groups for the latest on who is going when, inc. ad-hoc visits to other climbing walls such as the Golden Gecko in Romsey, and Calshot.
Parthian
Parthian is near Southampton just off the M271.
It is a large climbing wall opened in 2022 with roped climbing, auto belays and a large bouldering area.
