"We can't wait for you to Reach New Heights and have Mountains of Fun with the team here. Book Now!

"Enjoy our amazing climbing walls towering over 8m with multiple routes to their peaks.

"Walk up Stairway to Heaven, take on the Twister or run up the Speed Wall and more.

"Fun for the whole family, novice to expert."

And the post added: "We ask that you book your Rock Up session in advance where possible for your and our staff health and well-being and to help reduce queues at check-in.

"Please use contactless payment throughout your visit.

"We also require all visitors over the age of 11 to wear a face mask or covering within Rock Up."
