Hardly anything to do unless you are trained on the partner belay. Which I guess on our first drop in we weren’t allowed to use, so there were only 5 auto belay spots we could use and we brought our 5 and 7 yr old and the walls were just too hard for them. Wish they had more options for younger kids. Money would have been better spent going to extreme air park and letting the kids go on the climbing walls there.
Is it safe? Yes. Rock climbing gyms typically require a safety course on proper belaying techniques, knots, and other fundamentals for top-rope courses and have designated “beginner” courses for first-timers. The facility also has auto belay’s which allow you to climb the walls with just a quick orientation on how to use them.
What should I wear? Loose-fitting clothing that you can easily move around in. You’ll be able to grab climbing shoes, harness, and other necessary gear onsite.
Do I have to be in good shape? Not really—climbing gyms have courses that cater to a wide range of fitness levels. Generally speaking, if you can climb a ladder you can indoor rock climb.
What if I’m afraid of heights? Try bouldering, which takes place on shorter walls and doesn’t require harnesses or other top-rope gear. Bouldering focuses more on moving sideways than vertically, so climbers rarely get more than 10–12 feet off the ground.
