Climb Fit St Leonards - Sydney - Review
Back in January this year, we checked out Climb Fit in St Leonards. Little Miss liked practising indoor rock climbing during friends birthday parties, so I thought it would be a great activity to do as a family.
Upon arriving, we signed our waiver and got geared up to start climbing.
My husband and I had a crash course in belaying with the ropes to prevent the kids from falling should they let go of the rock when climbing.
Once little Miss was tightly secured, she was ready to climb all the way up to the top of the easy green course.
Climb Fit St Leonards has 160+ different top rope and lead climbing routes which provides variety and difficulty for everyone. This is a perfect activity for families, friends and birthday parties.
Little Mister also had a go at different routes and loved the kids ones with ladders, stars etc.
The kids also liked the practice wall climb that keeps going as you climb!
Little Miss and her brother really enjoyed climbing up to the ladder several times.
There is also an area with a dark tunnel but little Miss and her brother got stick and were terrified when they turned the light off my phone when they were in the tunnel! So be cautious with this setup if your child is young.
Climb Fit St Leonards also has over 90 boulder problems which is setup in one bouldering area upstairs and more geared for adults.
We had a great time at Climb Fit St Leonards, I even had a go and it took me back to my youth climbing in indoor rock climbing centres and also climbing cliffs in France! A great center for everyone to enjoy this great sport.
