WELCOME TO THE CORE

Core is a family-friendly brand that focuses on creating an opportunity for all people to climb and share in this great community. If you are looking for a fun, high-energy environment with fantastic climbs and even better people, come along and see for yourself.

Climbing is challenging, rewarding, and incredibly social. Whether you are stepping onto a wall for the first time or pushing your limits on a steep overhang, there is a place for you here.

Located in the heart of Carrara on the Gold Coast, we are proud to be the region's largest climbing facility — and we are just getting started.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Absolutely. Core was built for everyone — from first-timers to seasoned climbers. Our walls include gentle intro routes specifically designed for beginners, and our team is always happy to show you the basics. You don't need any experience to get started. Just bring comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes.

We welcome climbers of all ages. Younger children can start on our intro walls with a guardian present. Check with our front desk for age-specific guidelines.

No. We provide climbing shoes and harnesses for hire. If you have your own gear, feel free to bring it. For bouldering, you only need shoes (which we can hire out). For top-rope or lead climbing, you'll also need a harness.

Before your first visit, complete our online waiver (it takes about 2 minutes). This saves you time at the front desk. You can sign it from home before you arrive, or on your phone at the venue.
