Need to know before you arrive.
Whether you're an experienced climber or just starting out, we want to make sure your first visit to Climber's Rock is as enjoyable as all the rest.

All visitors (climbing or not) must have an Approach Account with us and a current waiver on file to enter our facility beyond the front desk and café.
Participants age 18 and over can create their own individual account and submit their own waiver. Families with participants under the age of 18 can create a household account.
Minors under the age of 18 must be added to a household account created by a parent or legal guardian.

To enter any of our climbing areas as a climber or spectator, you will need to have a current waiver on file. Participants age 18 years and older must complete, e-sign and submit their own waiver.
We are frequently asked if older siblings, family friends, aunts/uncles, grandparents, etc. can fill out the waivers on a minor’s behalf: unfortunately, the answer is no.
Waivers stay active in our system for five (5) years before needing to be renewed.

All of our walls are self-serve: if you want to use them, you need to know how! Our rope walls require you take a lesson, or pass a test to prove you’ve already got the necessary skills. Check out the Instruction page to learn more and schedule an appointment.
Climbers must pass our Top Rope Belay Test before belaying at Climber’s Rock. To pass, you’ll need to properly wear and inspect your harness, tie and inspect figure 8, figure 8 follow-through, and stopper knots, and properly belay and lower your climber using a Petzl Grigri. Figure 8 knots are not pre-tied, and Grigris must be attached to the belayer’s harness. Passing this test permits you to belay at Climber’s Rock. This certification is not transferable to other climbing gyms.
If you’re unfamiliar with any of the concepts mentioned above, be sure to first book a Top Rope Belay Lesson to get yourself up to speed.
