Climbing at the ACLO

Whenever you’re going to a training or going climbing at the ACLO you will need to use your own material, consisting of the following: Climbing harness, belaying device, climbing shoes, chalk bag and don’t forget your wall card.

Borrowing material

  • GSAC members need the ZK-OV status at least to be able to borrow material from the GSAC. This status is achievable by following GSAC courses and showing that you can do single pitch outside.

  • You can borrow alpine material after having finished a C1 (or higher) course. You are also allowed to borrow material for taking the C1 course.

  • Borrowing material is free, but you will be charged for damaging or losing material.

  • You can find the rental regulations in the HR


If you want to lend materials you can get in touch with the material commissioner (materiaal@gsac.nl). Below are the moments at which the hok is opened and you can pick up materials. Always check beforehand if the materials you want to lend are available, and let the matco know that you will be there!
