Memberships
Standard Monthly
Monthly Membership: Memberships for RGU SPORT include unlimited gym & swim access; climbing wall pricing is structured via session‑rates rather than a clearly published “monthly climbing only pass” in the sources I found.
Please note we require a one‑month cancellation notice. (I could not find explicit wording in the public sources about “one‑month cancellation notice” specifically for the climbing wall passes.)
Student Membership
Student Monthly Membership: Students of RGU receive free or discounted access to RGU SPORT facilities; climbing wall discounts are offered.
Please note we require a one‑month cancellation notice.
