Things to do at Rock Up Lakeside review
Located in the popular retail and leisure Lakeside shopping centre in West Thurrock is Rock Up Lakeside. It is a wall-climbing centre with an eye-catching range of climbing walls great for families. No experience is necessary and there are plenty of fun challenges to keep you all healthy and active. The walls are bright and colourful and there is something to suit all abilities with some walls being more challenging than others.
The centre has 27 climbing walls to try, there are exciting challenges available for all abilities. Some of their walls are over 8 metres. You can climb the Stairway to heaven or try and set a new record on the speed climb. A climbing session lasts for around an hour. You will also need to allow additional time for getting your harness fitted plus you will have a safety briefing about how to use the equipment. (duration of this varies).
All the walls have an auto billet system that stops you from falling meaning no one needs catching and it’s easy to lower yourself back down to the ground. Supervisors are close at hand at all times. Their standard sessions are suitable for all climbers aged 4 years plus. They also have special toddler climb and play sessions plus Autism and SEN friendly child or adult sessions.
