You choose between a private session for one or two people, or joining a group of three or more.

The experience

You'll spend five hours on the rock with a guide who knows how to teach. The guide brings all the climbing gear (ropes, harnesses, protection), and handles the setup so you can focus on learning. Whether you're new to climbing or you've done it before, the guide scales the difficulty to match what you can do that day. Families, couples and groups all climb here. The guide works with whatever mix shows up.

The helmet and all climbing equipment are included, so you arrive and climb. You'll sign a waiver before you start. The guide speaks English or Spanish. If you're booking for one or two people, you can arrange a private session. Groups of three or more climb together. Transportation to and from the climbing area is on you, and food and drinks aren't part of the package.
