First TIme at KIIPEILYAreena
Register before you arrive!
We register all our customers for safety reasons. During the registration process, we show a video on key safety issues. In addition, we provide on-site guidance for all first-time visitors. We recommend that you register in advance using the link below the image to avoid waiting. Everyone 14 years of age or older should register.
NOTE! Registration will only go through if the videos are watched to the end. Do not leave the page during the videos, as this will interrupt the videos and you will have to start again. Also remember to press the “NEXT” button after the videos are finished. Once you have completed your registration, you will receive a notification in your email. The system will then set up a climbing account for you, which will allow us to find you in the cashier system when you arrive.
For all new registrations, we offer the possibility to buy a 3 times card for the low price of €49 (rental equipment included). The discount is valid for two weeks from registration and the purchased 3 times card is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.

First time on a climbing wall or have you tried it occasionally?
You can always come to the gym without an appointment. Our staff will give you an initial introduction and provide you with the necessary rental equipment.
In Ristikko, Salmisaari, Kalasatama or Tammisto?
In Ristikko and Salmisaari you will find both high climbing walls and bouldering. Kalasatama and Tammisto are climbing gyms exclusively dedicated to bouldering, and offer the best conditions for boulder climbing.
Bouldering or high walls?
Bouldering means climbing low climbing walls on mattresses without a harness. In Ristikko and Salmisaari, you can also climb 10 to 29 metres high climbing walls with a harness. Beginners with no previous experience can also climb with auto-belay equipment, for which we always provide instruction. There are 22 climbing lines with auto-belay equipment in Ristikko and 11 in Salmisaari.
