Children love climbing but...
Bouldering is very safe by yourself. You climb up and fall down onto the crash pads safely. But when other climbers are climbing, you must be careful to avoid being landed on.
Experience tells us that children are not capable of taking care of themselves so we've had to create this age limit. Experience also tells us that some caregivers are not proactive enough to keep the child safe.
As a result, children must be secondary school age or older to climb at Faultline.
If your child is looking to climb, children from 7 years old and up are welcome and can climb safely on the ropes at HangDog in Lower Hutt.
