In addition to the involvement of the whole body in climbing, the mental and emotional aspect plays an important role. You climb with body and mind, with particular attention during the climb to managing fatigue, breathing, and improving our ability to decipher and interpret the various passages that present themselves to us. Climbing is often compared to Yoga or other "meditative" disciplines, and shares with them the cultivation of being increasingly present in the moment, to calm the mind and find oneself. The climbing experience, in Rockspot, takes place on artificial walls with heights from 12 to 16 meters, slabs or vertical.

The experience gives the possibility to the spouses to recycle their own "family gold", maybe old and closed in a drawer, which always has a very strong emotional meaning and to which we will give a new sustainable life. The experience includes the workshop for creating wedding rings, which will last from 2 to 3 hours depending on the model to be made. Engravings, a photographic reportage of the most beautiful moments and the aperitif at the end are included, while any gold costs (if the spouses did not have it and we had to provide it) are extra.
