Climb on Up!
Who needs to travel to the Alps and risk life for an adventure when you have Planet Rock? Everyone from the ages of 5 to 90 can take a crack at the 55 ft wall. If you are the type of person who seeks a physical and mental challenge then make a trip out to the Planet Rock in Pontiac. With just over 13,000 sq ft of wall to climb, you'll have your hands full.


If you're a beginner don't sweat it, the staff provides an hour and a half of training before you climb your way to the top. If you consider yourself a master or have some experience then you can try their Leads Route (you clip the draws as you ascend the wall, which allows you to pick and choose your route) reaching about 70ft.


Whatever your level of experience, it doesn't matter; it's all about achieving one thing, defeating the wall. Don't be afraid, trained professionals are always on hand to provide you with tips as well as safety. Challenge yourself and experience the rush.


Planet Rock provides private parties at a special packaged price. For all the details go to their web site


Looking for a work-out? Climbing one of these walls forces you to use muscles you probably never knew existed. After a few times climbing a wall you'll be on your way to sculpting your chiseled body. Gyms around the Detroit area are now including a climbing wall so check with yours today.
