SUMMARY: nestled inside an enormous warehouse on the edge of Copenhagen's harbour is one of the largest indoor climbing centres in Scandinavia. If you are looking to get your inner-city adventure kicks, this is it. Blocks & Walls flexes a huge selection of facilities including multiple high-wall climbing routes, a bouldering section, a gym, changing rooms, and a cosy café. There is a wide selection of courses and classes on offer to improve your climbing abilities. Alternatively, take an introductory lesson with an instructor to learn the ropes - so to speak - or, if you already know what you are doing then you can use the facilities independently (proof of certificates required).
WHEN TO VISIT: Opening hours are as follows: Monday-Friday: 10:00-23:00; Saturday & Holy Days: 10:00-20:00; Sunday: 10:00-22:00. It gets very busy after work on weekdays (18:00-20:00) and weekends, so aim for off-peak times if your schedule allows it.
DON'T MISS: the other selection of actives nearby in Refshaleøen. Only a few minutes walk is a paintball centre, high-ropes course, skatepark, and bungee jump. If you're hungry, the brilliant street food-market Reffen is also a stones throw away with an amazing selection of food and bars from around the world along with the famous Danish craft brewery Mikkeller.
HOW TO GET THERE: It is a little out the way with no metro station nearby so it is recommended to take a bus. First, get the M1/M2 line to Christianshavn St. (Metro), then change to bus 2A. The bus stop Christianshavn St. (Torvegade) is right by the station and easy to find. The bus ride will take around ten minutes, get off at Refshaleøen (Refshalevej) which is the final stop. It is a short walk to Blocks & Walls from there.
NOTE: Climbing shoes are required for all facilities, you can bring your own or hire a pair for 40dkk. For the high walls, an equipment set can be hired for 90dkk. Equipment requirement varies across courses and activities with different prices for members - more details on their website.
