About

Kids Climbing Camps gives kids time on the bouldering walls and includes activities such as slacklining, crate stacking, rope ladder, and obstacle courses. Camp days also include day hikes and arts + crafts as part of the schedule. Kids Climbing Camps are described as action-packed, educational and fun, and campers are described as playing hard, coming home tired, and learning valuable life skills along the way.

• Ages: 6–13 years old
• Schedule: Weekly camps run Monday–Friday from 8:30am–3:30pm, with 10 weeks of Summer Break Camp in 2026 and daily drop-in reservations opened the Friday before each camp session, subject to availability.
• Price: Pricing starts at $495/week, with sibling and member discounts automatically applied at checkout; seasonal camps and daily drop-ins range from $125–$595 depending on age, membership status, and session type.

Climbers ages 6–9 climb in the greenhouse, with age-appropriate climbing challenges and a focus on fundamentals of being safe in a bouldering gym. Climbers ages 10–13 climb on the main bouldering floor, with a deeper focus on climbing technique and movement on a greater variety of terrain. Last year, prices were dropped 35% for younger climbers and 25% for older climbers to make camps more affordable, and there is a Financial Aid program for Kids Climbing Camps.

The mission of the program is stated as “We strive to make climbing accessible for all.” The youth program manager is Bryce, who can be reached at [email protected]. The program is part of Interior Elevation LLC, which is noted as © 2009–2026.

One parent named Catherine shared that a staff member at the front desk was “super helpful and kind” during a visit with her 5-year-old and that her daughter “had a blast.” Another climber named Dave described the gym as having “great route setting and variety for all levels of climbers” and noted that members are “very friendly and helpful.” A climber named Lacey described the gym as “super clean, friendly & the total package,” with “bouldering for days,” fun routes, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and “tons of amenities.”
