Geocache Description:

A traditional cache in the proximity of the indoor and rock climbing facility of Civil Service Club Tessensohn Road.


Over the last 2 years, we have been here almost every Sunday. Fishie3 and Fishie4 have they regular climbing course, so that we are prepared for all the tree climbing and rock climbing caches to come. So why not place a cache here.

On 25 Oct 1971, the Singapore Government first set up the Singapore Civil Service Sports Council (SCSSC), mainly to handle inter-territorial games between the Civil Servants of Singapore and Malaysia. The target was from the start to promote sports, fitness and recreational activities among the Public Officers. Over the years, the SCSSC has evolved to the better known, Civil Service Club (CSC). The Club has today three locations across the Island. Tessensohn Road (which also moved here over the years) plus Clubhouses at Changi and the newest location at Bukit Batok. Within Tessensohn Road a climbing facility is located.

Within the Civil Service Club you can perform a lot of indoor and outdoor rock climbing. You can start with bouldering, is the act of climbing on walls that are usually 3 metres in height (but can go up to 5 metres) and without the use of a rope and a harness. The indoor rock climbing walls are between 7 and 9 metres tall. The big outdoor wall is finally up to 15 metres and you will need a certified buddy to belay you. So there is something for everybody.

The newest addition is now a cache tha climbers and non-climbers can find.
