Agility is only available to RuneScape members. Please subscribe to get this feature.

Agility is a skill that can be used to get over, up and through various obstacles, often as a short cut, or to get into new areas. Typical examples of where you use your agility skill are to squeeze through a pipe, swing on a rope over a hole, or use some handholds to climb up a wall. Just click on the obstacle you wish to get past, and if you have the appropriate agility skill level you will attempt it.

You will never fail some obstacles once you reach the appropriate agility level. On other obstacles it is possible to fall off, which will cause you to lose hitpoints.

A good way to advance your agility skill is to use the obstacle courses. By going round the obstacle course in the correct order you can get an agility experience bonus from the course. This is in addition to the normal agility skill experience you get from attempting single obstacles.

Players with low-levels of agility might want to use the obstacle course in the tree gnome stronghold. At level 35 you can also enter the obstacle course at the barbarian outpost. There is also a high level obstacle course at the very north of the wilderness. If the threat from PK'ers is too much for you, there is the werewolf agility area beneath the Haunted Woods of Morytania. There is a level 60 obstacle course, and a level 25 skullball course. Beware, though - the agility area is for werewolves only.

As well as allowing you to get through various obstacles, agility is also used to recover energy after running.
The higher the level of agility you have, the faster you will notice your energy after running refilling back to normal, letting you run further more quickly. Players with very high levels of agility will find that they can move quickly around the world of RuneScape and that they recover their run energy very quickly.
