EPIC NEW CLIMBING CHALLENGE, ASCENDOR, ARRIVES AT CLIP ‘N CLIMB PLYMOUTH FOR THE BIGGEST AND BEST HALF TERM YET Launch of 44th climbing line makes Clip ‘n Climb Plymouth one of the biggest in the UK
This half term, visitors to Clip ‘n Climb Plymouth can look forward to taking on an incredible new challenge, as the centre launches an epic vertical climbing line called ‘Ascendor’. This is the latest addition to the popular local attraction, which now features a whopping 44 climbing lines, making it one of the biggest Clip ‘n Climb centres in the whole of the UK.
Ascendor is the first of its kind for Clip ‘n Climb, giving visitors the chance to scale its 26ft climbing challenge inside the iconic Ship Building, with incredible views from the top. Featuring brightly coloured ladder type climbs, climbers can race against a friend or family member. It has three difficulty levels (including scaling the wall just using your hands!) and is open to visitors of all abilities.
Following its launch in Plymouth, and depending on visitor feedback, Ascendor could be rolled out internationally across Clip ‘n Climb’s 150+ centres, which span 35 countries including France, Australia and Holland.
Ascendor is just one of an array of climbing challenges at Plymouth, which also features the UK’s tallest ‘Big Cheese’ challenge and ‘Stairway to Heaven’. The Plymouth centre is also home to the world’s famous interactive climbing wall, ValoClimb, which uses augmented technology to put climber’s skills to the test.
During half-term, the centre will also be running a breakfast club starting at 9:30am on Thursday 21st and Friday 22nd, offering a free tea or coffee to every paying climber. Toddlers (2-3year-olds) can also get in on the fun, by taking part in Mini Mountaineers, running on Monday 18th, Wednesday 20th and Saturday 23rd from 9:30am.
Laura Gemmell from Clip ‘n Climb Plymouth, said: “We can’t wait for our visitors to try out our new Ascendor challenge, and with three difficulty levels, everyone can give it a go! We are always after customer feedback on our new challenges to test our visitors and Ascendor is just the latest addition to a whole host of other popular climbs. We are now one of the UK’s largest Clip ‘n Climb’s and visitors can look forward to an action-packed day out filled with unique challenges.
“This half-term is going to be bigger and better than ever and we have a variety of activities and challenges for visitors to try. Clip ‘n Climb is perfect for families looking for a day out with a difference, whatever the weather, and with the launch of our new breakfast club, there is always something to keep everyone of all ages entertained in the school holidays!”
