Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania, is about to welcome a new addition to its community: The Gravity Vault Indoor Rock Climbing Gym. This facility aims to provide a fun and inclusive environment where both beginners and experienced climbers can learn, train, and enjoy climbing together. The gym will hold a soft opening on Friday, March 21, at the Whitehall Mall.
Facility Details
The new gym will occupy a renovated space of approximately 25,000 square feet at 1951 Whitehall Mall. This location was previously home to a PA Fitness gym, which closed in January 2022. The former fitness facility had operated since 2004, after being transformed from the mall’s old Plaza Theatre and Leh’s department store.
Opening and Operations
The gym will open its doors at 12 p.m. on Friday, March 21, offering day passes, memberships, and tours of the facility. After the opening day, regular hours will be from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.
Community Impact
This will be the first Gravity Vault location in the Lehigh Valley, marking a significant addition to the region’s recreational offerings. Established in 2005, Gravity Vault aims to create a welcoming environment for climbers of all levels, fostering a sense of community and promoting physical activity.
