BK Climbers
BK Climbers is a climbing club offering climbing related activities for people of any age to get the most out of climbing. Our mission is to develop and improve the knowledge and practice of bouldering in the Helsinki Metropolitan area. Our home gyms are Boulderkeskus’ gyms in Konala, Herttoniemi, Lauttasaari and Suomenoja in Espoo. Founded in 2014, BK Climbers is a member of the Finnish Climbing Association (SKIL).
We are most passionate about offering climbing opportunities for kids. In our junior climbing groups, there are about 250 climbers every season and some of our young climbers from the goal-oriented groups can even be found in the Finnish National Team! BK Climbers has a variety of great instructors and coaches, supported by the Boulderkeskus coaching team.
Anyone interested in climbing can join BK Climbers!

Guidelines for members
You can pay your membership fee and at the same time update your membership information directly via the form on the website. Membership is confirmed by paying the fee, and after payment, the member receives a payment confirmation in his email, which should be kept as a proof of the membership. Keep it safe! In the event of an accident, by showing the payment receipt, you can get service from Pohjola’s medical centers.
Once paid, the membership and insurance are valid until the end of the calendar year. SKIL insurance, i.e. Sporttiturva, is still valid until January of the following year, starting from the membership payment year.

At the end of the year, we’ll send current members a link for paying the next year’s membership fee and updating your contact information. If you want to end your membership, please notify the club by e-mail to bk.climbers@gmail.com well before the beginning of the next year.
