Some kids need somewhere to put their energy that isn't the sofa. These are the clubs and gyms where children can climb, train and play sports with coaches used to their age group, from first-timers to kids who already have a favorite sport.
Hapik is a fun-climbing hall inside the Centre sportif et culturel Camille Muffat. The walls are colorful themed challenges rather than standard routes, each with an auto-belay rope, so kids climb on their own with no experience.
There is also an indoor ropes course in via ferrata style, a leap-of-faith jump, bamboo poles and an interactive climbing game, plus a snack bar.
The largest bouldering and roped-climbing gym in the capital, spread over 4,000 m². Kids can boulder on walls up to 4 meters high over thick mats with no harness, or tie in on roped walls around 10 meters high.
Instructors run a climbing school, family sessions and school-holiday programs. A café-bar serves light meals, and a separate studio hosts yoga.
Arkose Chevaleret is a bouldering gym with more than 1,000 m² of short walls climbed without ropes over thick mats, plus a warm-up area and a sauna. Routes are reset continuously and set for every level.
Younger climbers get a separate kids space with easier boulders, and teens have their own walls before moving on to the adult areas. The Cantine restaurant has a terrace for parents waiting.
A bouldering gym at the foot of Montmartre, a few steps from Montmartre Cemetery, with more than 12 problems at each grade and routes reset all the time. Kids from 3 to 12 get their own area of colorful walls, while teens climb the adult sectors.
Classes, school-holiday camps and climbing birthday parties run year-round, and the Cantine restaurant on site serves seasonal dishes with vegetarian options.
