We could only see children climbing when we arrived, so we thought this would be too easy for adults. However, it was very challenging and we were unable to complete some of them! We were a group of 4 adults and 2 children and had lots of fun, it was a very enjoyable afternoon and we left with a huge smile and aching arms. All the staff were very friendly and helpful:) they made the experience even funnier.
Thanks Guys!

Visited here for a kids 7th birthday party and my son thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The staff were really friendly and there was plenty of space for parents. It looked really clean and safety was a priority for the team.

Staff were amazing, looked after him all the way around. Softplay was ideal for the younger kids while the older ones climb. Highly recommended.
We will definitely be back again soon.

Explorers are an active lot, and have already tried their hands at lots of activities so an evening climbing to them didn't seem like a big deal, then we arrived at Rock Up. Fantastic climbs, fun races, challenging obstacles and the stairway to heaven!
They loved it and we are now talking about going back!

Really enjoyed it here! Different walls/routes for different abilities. Don’t need to have any climbing experience. Just clip into a free wall and off you go! Safety /instruction brief beforehand. Staff were really helpful and friendly. My daughter got scared half way up and the instructor came and really helped her. She got to the top after that.
I’ve recommended this place to numerous people now.
