Climbing is a sport, a hobby, a lifestyle, and an incredibly fun and social way to get in shape! Climbing improves endurance, strength, and flexibility while also challenging your mind. Our 35-foot climbing walls and expansive bouldering area offer climbing routes for every skill level.
Our bouldering wall is a great place for beginners to try climbing. Bouldering is climbing without the use of ropes or a harness on a short wall, with large mats to catch your fall.
We offer top rope and lead climbing, where you wear a harness and climb with the help of a belayer to manage the ropes. We have five auto-belayers at ARC, which means you can clip in and climb independently if you don’t know how to belay, or are climbing on your own.
Whether you’re a beginner, an elite climber, or a fitness buff, you’ll fit right in at ARC!
If you’ve never climbed before, we recommend taking our Intro to Climbing Class. It’s a two-hour class, and you’ll learn the basic skills needed to start rope climbing: how to secure your harness, tie knots, complete your safety checks, and how to belay. After the class, use your new skills and climb until you can’t climb anymore!
ARC Start gives you unlimited access to the climbing gym and yoga classes for 30 days. This sweet deal also includes an Intro to Climbing class and any rental gear you need.
