Wonder what it's like? Ask our happy climbers!
I'm a big fan of this climbing spot. Especially on weekend mornings when it's super chill. My kids always have a good time and they don't get tired of the walls because they vary in difficulty so they challenge themselves to complete a new one each time they come. The staff is always friendly, and I like the snack bar and the options that are available.
Love the environment nice all around various rock climbing walls kind staff reasonable price and most of all I love how they give u a quick briefing when it comes to learning how to clip on and clip off the harness especially when it comes to your children I know because I took my four year old and it was lovely
Knew Hapik from my girls' friend's bday party. After 2 months, my 5 yr old asked to climb again. She loved it and I got her membership. After a few times watching, I felt board and got my own membership. Guess what? I found my new hobby at 45 yr old. We feel so great after climbing workout every time. We both can see our skills are improving. We watched 2024 Olympic climbing. I even subscribed to a few climbing channels.
So I brought my 10 year old son here twice already and all I can say is, THANK YOU! We love challenging each other as a family as well as exercising and this place checked off 2 of those! I thought I'd go through the entire place and get bored quick, but no. I actually got better and better which in turn made it even funner. It doesn't look high from the ground but once you're up there, it's totally different😂. I will be back for a 3rd time to destroy my family members and establish my place as the King! Thanks Hapik! 👍🏻
Why Choose a Rock Climbing Birthday Party for Your Kid
A genuinely active experience
Unlike many birthday activities, climbing keeps kids engaged for a full hour with no downtime, all while building coordination, confidence, and comfort with heights in a fully supervised, safe setting.
It's also a departure from the "wait your turn" structure of bowling or the general commotion of a trampoline park. At HAPIK, every child climbs at their own pace, with no imposed competition.
Builds Confidence at Any Age
Climbing develops motor skills, balance, and coordination while building strength. Identifying the next hold encourages problem-solving and focus, and reaching the top builds genuine confidence — which is why we welcome climbers from age 4+ for parties.
Safety at every step
Our patented auto-belay system allows children to climb independently, with no risk of falling. At the top, they simply release and are lowered gently by the auto-belay device, while staff supervise the entire arena throughout.
Simple to adjust
HAPIK makes it simple to adjust your package up until the day of the event, keeping the planning process straightforward for parents.
What Does a HAPIK Birthday Cost?
Depending on the tier selected and the day and time of booking, for groups of 6 climbers minimum. Discounted rates apply on school days and after 5pm on weekends. From $21.90 per climber

Great time being active and having fun with the entire family. Brought daughter for her 7th birthday and our whole group climbed, including teenager and adults. Definitely requires some physical effort, but very affordable and fun for everyone.
