“The climbing experience felt very safe, and the staff were incredibly helpful throughout.”
From the reviews
We chose this place to celebrate our daughter's birthday with their friends and couldn't choose a better place. Everyone had a blast! They have many different walls with different beginner climbing levels (probably a 5.2 to 5.5), and the auto belays feel very safe.
ClimbZone at Mall of America is one of the most exciting and creative climbing experiences we’ve ever had! With over 40 uniquely designed walls, this place is an absolute dream for kids and adults alike. Each wall is bursting with color, imagination, and themed fun—it’s not just climbing, it’s an adventure.
Climb Zone is a must when visiting the Mall. We saw them on a YouTube ad and traveled 4 hours to check them out. The staff are very friendly and informative. They help you get fitted and make sure you understand how the harness works and how to use the tie off.
Ah, young Padawans and seasoned Jedi alike, ClimbZone calls to those who seek adventure and challenge. Within the grand halls of the Mall of America, towering walls adorned with themes of wonder and imagination await.

One thing that's different here: every guest needs a signed waiver — send the gym's waiver link to the other parents when you send invites, or check-in day gets slow. Packages, party rooms, and pricing change often, so check the current options and book ahead — weekend slots go fast at popular gyms.
