Adventure Hub, Bahrain’s first indoor active entertainment centre, is now open at the Galleria Mall in Zinj.
Spread over 6,000 square feet, the enthralling state-of-the-art adventure centre, offers family-friendly indoor entertainment and recreation activities to inspire active lifestyles and create empowering experiences through play.
In addition to obstacle courses, climbing features and caves, there is a dedicated play area for toddlers, making it suitable for people of all ages.
The hub is complete with a full-size obstacle course, high ropes course, low ropes course, rock climbing wall, low climbing wall, fun walls, caving and a soft play area.
A café complementing the adventure theme will be launched soon.
The rope courses are a great attraction that’s not only extremely fun but also very beneficial for building and maintaining good physical shape and balance.
You have to work your way through 15 ever-changing obstacles while wearing all safety gear and a safety harness.
The safety harness is absolutely secure and cannot be detached by the user. It can safely take a load of 120kgs.
Balance on thin ropes, climb over nets, walk on thin planks, crawl through swinging tunnels and cross moving bridges across open space, all while you are suspended nearly 20 feet high.
The course is appropriate for participants of all skill levels and the only requirement is to be 1.2 metres in height.
This can also be introduced as a fun method for those looking to overcome acrophobia – the fear of height – in an absolutely safe environment.
Younger climbers will have a blast on the low rope course, exploring a series of routes, ropes, and obstacles. Again there are 15 obstacles to overcome guided by well-trained assistants.
The climbing walls are for those wanting to soar to heights by climbing grips, holds, nooks and crannies that you can hang onto.
Reach the top of the wall and just lean back to be gently lowered back down to the ground.
When climbing walls you are also building strength, improving balance and posture, developing hand and eye co-ordination and reinforcing your problem-solving skills. Fun walls are interactive-themed walls for children – ideal for five years and above.
Rocktopia wall offers sport climbing for beginners, intermediate level and advanced climbers. Advanced climbers can enjoy racing against friends or let instructors set a personal challenge.
There is an extremely safe system – meaning that participants are always clipped securely and lowered through a smooth system at a gradual pace.
The ultra-realistic caving system lets you experience the hidden world of underground tunnels, rocks and hidden treasures. The caves are replicas of real natural rocks.
Children can explore the caves in groups and embark on team adventures and treasure hunts led by qualified and friendly instructors.
Camera systems are placed inside the caves for guardians to track the exact location of children.
Drop your toddlers at the play area, filled with brightly coloured tubes, tunnels, channel nets and slides where they can learn and play.
A unique attraction is Crazy Travers – a wall that’s 6m wide and 2.5m in height.
“We’re here to provide a safe, fun, and active environment for people of all ages,” said a spokesman.
“The activities here are a great way of releasing the stored energy within and a perfect encouragement of releasing the inner child.
“A great way of getting kids away from their screens and out of their comfort zones in this exhilarating new way to get active and have fun.
“We are open for pre-booked parties, group programmes and summer-camps.
“A fun and active place for kids birthday gatherings where a 90-minute session is dedicated for the enjoyment of all activities followed by a meal and cake-cutting ceremony at the decorated birthday lounge.”
The hub is open every day from 10am to 11pm.
