We’re excited to have you join us for top rope climbing—a safe, fun, and rewarding way to experience the vertical world. This quick induction will help you understand how top rope climbing works, what to expect, and how to climb safely.
What Is Top Rope Climbing?
Top rope climbing involves a rope that runs from the climber, up through an anchor at the top of the wall, and back down to a belayer who manages the rope. This setup offers a high level of safety and is perfect for beginners and experienced climbers alike.

Safety First
Our team is here to ensure a safe environment for everyone. All climbers must pass a quick safety check before using the top rope area independently. You’ll always have staff support nearby if you need help.

Once you’ve completed the induction, you’re ready to enjoy the wall! Take your time, climb within your comfort level, and most importantly—have fun.
