CHECK-IN FLOW

From check-in to your first move.

Here is the four-step process for a first registered visit.

  1. Reception and registration

    Receive the visit introduction and complete the registration form. Minors need a guardian signature.

  2. Choose a plan and pay

    Choose a duration or trial plan. Confirm current pricing at reception because rates may change.

  3. Change and prepare

    Prepare in the second-floor changing room using the baskets and lockers. Remove rings, watches and pocket contents.

  4. Fit shoes and learn the rules

    Staff explain equipment, walls, safety and movement tips. Warm up before climbing.

SAFETY

Mats reduce risk; they don't remove it.

Climbing involves falling and collision risk. Follow staff guidance, gym rules and awareness of others.

1

Stay clear below climbers

Keep out of fall zones and stay aware of the wall around you.

2

Remove accessories

Remove rings, watches and anything that could fall from a pocket.

3

Ask when unsure

If a rule or piece of equipment is unclear, ask before climbing.
