Route Setting

Our Dedicated team of professional setters are in four times a week bringing you fresh new climbs for your enjoyment. There is always something new to try at both Tottenham Hale and London Fields.

 

Events in the calendar such as The Jam or the epic Siege bouldering league bring even more great climbs to Stronghold! So whether you’re a total beginner or competing at the top level; there’s always something going on.

Come down and get involved!

 

Our route setting schedule is a great way to find the latest area to be reset or when your projects will come down.

 

With every circuit getting re-set at least every 4-6 weeks, there’s always enough time to work your project before a fresh new set of problems get put up. You can use the calendar below to see what’s getting reset soon, and keep an eye on our social feeds for more information and some beta!

RE-SETTING ROUTES

We take down the problems or “blocs” on multiple sections every week. We strip, wash and set on a Wednesday and a Friday with the aim for all the blocs to be open to the public by 3pm. Each set has a range of difficulties from beginner through to advanced.

These are set mainly by our in-house route setting team. There is always a variety of styles to try. The different walls all pose different challenges and work contrasting strengths and weaknesses, so it is always worth giving the new set a go even if it is not your ‘favourite’ wall.

We are always looking to improve so if there is a route or move you particularly like, or a setter who you rate, let us know on Instagram or Facebook!

SETTING ROTATION

We set on a seven-week rotation with the first six weeks being the main bouldering downstairs and week seven being the sport board.
