For a change from the usual climbing gyms in the capital, a new mountain-inspired facility has opened in Rueil-Malmaison, in the Hauts-de-Seine department. But it's not just bouldering you'll find here: the gym offers both free access and classes, as well as yoga, pilates and even a restaurant! Designed by Guillaume Hintzy, Pascal Martin and Sébastien Dussac, Granit is accessible to all!
Designed to reconnect climbers to their outdoor roots, with a style of climbing like on a cliff or in the mountains, its walls incorporate stone sections, and mountain culture is disseminated through books available on site, as well as regularly organized outdoor outings! If you're already used to climbing boulders, all you have to do is turn up from 18 euros!
But if you're a beginner, there are courses for all ages, in groups or on your own, and the sport can be practised from the age of 4, at the heart of theclimbing school.Climbing courses are also organized during the school vacations. All the ingredients for safe and effective progress! There's also a special area for the little ones, just 2.20 m high, where they can even celebrate their birthdays!
If you're not into climbing and prefer the calmer sports of yoga or pilates, take advantage of our Vinyasa Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Hatha Flow Yoga, Pilates, stretching and muscle-strengthening classes. After the effort, the comfort! A bistro adds another string to the establishment's bow, with a variety of seasonal home-cooked cuisine, to be enjoyed indoors or on the terrace, and even a 24-euro brunch for Sunday sports enthusiasts!
A lounge and coworking area with a library, as well as a boutique, complete the offer of this unusual climbing gym.
