Everyone is welcome to climb and build community at Campus Rec's indoor Climbing Center, featuring a 32-foot climbing wall with bouldering up to 14 feet. Staff are happy to provide belays or check your skills so you can belay your partner. We can accommodate a variety of ability levels and provide all of the climbing gear you need. An orientation video and quiz (available at Member Services) are required prior to using the Climbing Center.

Bouldering is climbing without ropes. We offer bouldering along the entire length of our wall, and the wall is available for bouldering during all open Rec Center hours. Roped climbing is only allowed during staffed hours.
