Explore Climbit
Climbit is an unusual mixture of physical fun, exploration and art!
This huge multi-storey climbing structure is a cross between a vertical maze and a jungle gym. The first of its kind in the UK and Ireland, Climbit is a unique, visually elegant, 3D sculpture specially designed for climbing. Oval platforms suspended from steel pipes and cables let visitors traverse over, under and through the amazing structure.
Please note: Climbit closes 30 minutes before closing time and is suitable for children aged 3 to 16 years.
