About

Climb Base5 Coquitlam

Climb Base5's Coquitlam gym on Brigantine Drive is the former Cliffhanger Coquitlam and the sister gym of Climb Base5 North Vancouver: one membership covers both. Base5 describes it as bright and expansive, with 45-foot walls offering slabs, cracks, roofs and vertical to steep lead climbs, and bouldering up to 14 feet. In 2015 it commissioned a competition-style bouldering wall from Walltopia.

There's top-rope and lead climbing, six auto-belays for climbing without a partner, and bouldering, with new climbs set every week, plus strength equipment and lockers. No booking is needed: first-time visitors get an orientation, and climbers aged 13 and under must be supervised by an adult.

Courses and programmes

  • A two-hour New Climber Course, run at this gym for people with little or no experience
  • The BASE Course, a two-hour introduction to top-rope belaying taught by ACMG-certified instructors, and the longer Beyond the Basics course
  • A free eight-week mentorship programme that pairs new climbers with experienced ones
  • Youth classes from age 6, from Geckos up to the lead-climbing Performance 4 Life group, plus a daytime Spiders class for home-schooled children at Coquitlam
  • School bookings, birthday parties and group belay sessions
