FORGET YOU’RE INDOORS

Our climbing gym is like no other. Designed by the world renowned climbing company Walltopia, our interior will make you forget you’re indoors due to the natural light and open spaces. Our training area has been designed so you can make the most of your climbing experience. Whether you are a beginner or training for international competition, you will love our wall!

If you have never climbed before, our staff will show you where and how to start your vertical adventures – It’s great family fun for ages 4 years and older! Climbers under 13 years old require adult supervision (one adult to a maximum of 3 climbers under 13) at all times in the climbing wall.

Group Bookings

Youth groups (school groups, sports teams, youth organizations, clubs, and birthday parties) require a booking with an instructor to use the wall to provide group risk management, ensure adequate staffing and to reserve wall space in our instructional/experiential climbing area.

To ensure access to the wall for our members and other drop-ins, we minimize the number of groups in a period of time.

Our programs provide the best group climbing experience!
