Another mint wall. The Pool is a little more old school but still some great setting and cush staff.

The Pool at Byker is brilliant for youngsters and novices with friendly staff to help you get started. It also has loads of harder challenges for experienced climbers and boulderers. The circle are changed regularly so there’s always something new to try.

Really nice Bouldering location. Make sure to sign up on the website before arriving as they won't let your boulder without doing so. Can get busy but there is plenty of walls to climb. Entry is around £10. There are fitting rooms and toilets.
