From the reviews
Today was such a fun day! A room full of energy, great vibes, challenges and a great workout! Phew! Prime Climb is located in Wallingford right off the highway . Very easy to get to, follow the signs all the way to the back and you will find it! When you go in , you get checked in, there are cubbies and hangers.
The family was doing in New England vacation where we visited all of the states. Connecticut was our second New England state we visited. Well technically, it was the first state we entered, but we checked out Rhode Island first.
Awesome older climbing gym with a super creative yet cozy setup. There’s a high-ropes obstacle course (which I hope is still active), a lounge, and plenty of gear to purchase for indoor and outdoor climbs.
This place is so much fun for a great work out! And they have so many different climbing levels. The staff is really nice and helpful. Definitely coming back here again

Packages, party rooms, and pricing change often, so check the current options and book ahead — weekend slots go fast at popular gyms.
