TRY CLIMBING: KIDS

 

Your child loves to climb up anything they can? You want them to try out rock climbing? You've come to the right place. Read through our options below and find out how you can get them started. 

TRY IT

Your child can try climbing by trying the auto-belays or bouldering.

AUTO-BELAYS

The Trublue initiation will allow you to use our auto-belays.

What is an auto-belay? It is a system that allows you to climb safely at heights without having to take the Climbing 101 course. You will then be able to supervise your children while they climb the autobelays.

Please note that anyone under the age of 16 must be accompagnied by an adult while using the auto-belays. Minors 16 and over may use the auto-belays without supervision only if they have a top rope accreditation at Allez Up.

TRUBLUE INITIATION

BOULDERING

Bouldering is a discipline of rock climbing that does not involve ropes. The walls are much smaller and climbers fall on mats instead of being attached to ropes.

A course is not required to boulder at Allez Up, so it's a great way to try climbing for the first time. 

Please note that children 14 and under must be accompanied and supervised by an adult at all times.

Comfortable loose or flexible clothing is most recommended. You can wear a closed, clean and dry shoe instead of the climbing shoes. Long hair must be tied back.

A waiver must be signed for each climber. For climbers under the age of 18, a parent or legal guardian must sign. All waivers will need to be renewed every 3 years. You can fill out your waiver online or at the gym.
