For those of you asking - yes, we will be reopening this spring! Pending government advice, our predicted reopening dates will be as follows:
March 29 - reopening of the outdoor boulders only
April 12 - reopening the main centre
We can't wait to see you all again!!
Sadly, following the government's new Tier 4 restrictions, Geckos will be closed from tonight, until further notice.
Have the happiest Christmas you can, everyone!
