Want to test yourself? Do you want to see how far your physical strength can take you? An indoor climbing session could be THE activity for you. Here we explain in 5 points why such an activity is an excellent option to forget the tensions of everyday life while strengthening your body. You will then understand that this sport is what you need to motivate you to achieve your goals in all areas of life.
1. The climbing wall puts you in front of your limits
It is an activity that challenges every part of the body, forcing you to work on your endurance and balance. Every muscle in your body works in harmony to help you progress and reach the top. Not only physical, but this activity has mental benefits too. Such activity puts you in front of a mirror while making you more aware of your abilities, fears and limitations, thereby encouraging you to go beyond them to achieve your goals. It is true that during the first session, you will come face-to-face with your fear of heights but your mind will be stimulated by the adrenaline and by all the other participants around you, which will allow you to push your limits and face your fears, to feel the satisfaction of having reached the end of the experience.
2. It is a sport accessible to all
In France, climbing walls are open to all, young and old. Depending on the level of expertise and the preferences, you can choose and book from several offers. The difficulty levels of the climbing walls are different depending on the shape of the wall, its slope, height, size of its holds etc. However, there are centres with several wall types where you can go as a family and enjoy all together, each one on the wall corresponding to its level. The more adventurous can try their hand at the highest climbing walls in France, which can be up to 25m high, notably in Mulhouse and Lyon.
3. The climbing wall is a safe sport
Our climbing centres have the right equipment for indoor climbing because your safety is what matters most to us. We will always give you a briefing on the safety rules before you start and also mention the instructions you must follow during the activity. The equipment provided by our partners is adapted to the chosen level of difficulty and checked by the qualified guide who will take responsibility and supervise you. In addition, all climbing gyms are equipped with shock-absorbing mechanisms to minimise any risk of an accident. This ensures that your activity takes place in the best possible conditions. You have nothing to fear!
4. An experience that fosters mutual support and cooperation
If you didn't know, we tell you here. A climbing wall session is one of those activities that help foster a sense of friendship and allows you to count on others. During your climbing session, you will not be alone! Fellow climbers will encourage and motivate you to do your best. They may even offer tips on improving your techniques and proceeding further safely. As they have a different perspective from you and perhaps more experience, their feedback may be quite pertinent. You will therefore learn through this activity to listen to others and their opinions, share your encouragement and advice with them, even if they are not close to you. This is a quality that will also serve you in your personal and professional life.
5. An ideal activity for special events
Are you celebrating a bachelor party, a birthday party or having a team-building exercise? Wall climbing is perfect for all occasions, especially a group. Lots of laughter and bonding is certain during a climbing session. Moreover, the encouragement and motivation of the most reluctant people to reach the top make this activity a joyful activity coupled with teamwork. Whether you are a family, a company or friends, our partners will prepare your arrival as it should be to welcome your special events.
