Rock Wall
The indoor rock wall gives climbers of all abilities the opportunity to challenge
themselves and have fun in a safe environment. The indoor experience simulates outdoor
rock climbing, but in a more controlled setting.
The 30-foot rock wall accommodates up to five climbers at a time and has three auto-belay
devices.
