With the winter season coming to an end, why not get out and get in shape for the summer?
At Prime Climb Inc., you can get active and in shape by participating in 40-foot tall rock climbing gyms and challenge courses with helpful lessons by a reputable staff.
Prime Climb Inc., located in Wallingford, Conn. about 18 miles from CCSU’s campus, is a great destination spot for beginner or experienced rock climbers of all ages who want to be active and have fun in a safe, comfortable and friendly state of the art indoor setting.
Two rock-climbing gyms are part of Prime Climb Inc., Prime Climb and Mountain Fun. Created in 2001, Mountain Fun is a beginner climbing gym used to introduce rock climbing to beginners wishing to just try it or move on to become a experienced climber, while Prime Climb gym is a more advanced gym.
Mountain Fun has a $20 fee for one hour of rock climbing with necessary equipment included from Friday to Sunday and a $15 fee for one hour of rock climbing with necessary equipment included from Tuesday to Thursday.
Prime Climb has a $15 adult day pass and a $9 child day pass. The day passes do not include equipment fees so if a rock climber does not have their own equipment, equipment rentals will be charged. A harness fee for $2, a rock shoe fee for $5, a belay device fee for $1 and a complete package of everything for $7 is included in the equipment rentals.
Lessons and packages, separate costs from the normal fees, are provided to climbers who need a refresher and climbers who have mastered Mountain Fun and deserve to hit up more advanced rock climbing walls.
Birthday parties, lessons, group events and corporate team building are also among the services Prime Climb Inc. provides.
If you are in the mood to have a nice workout and have loads of fun than visit Prime Climb during any of its regular hours throughout the week.
Mountain Fun is open Tuesday to Friday 2 p.m. to 9 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Prime Climb is open Monday 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Tuesday to Friday 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., Saturday 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.
