What's inside
“Very excited to see a dedicated bouldering gym in Ellensburg.”
From the reviews
Great little bouldering gym. They had a suprising amount of routrs for such a small footprint. The route setting was great, fun movement on routes across the grade range. I didn’t see anything harder than a V9 but that just means more routes for the rest of us mortals.
Very exciting to have a new gym in the area. The setting was very good and even though the space is small, they use it well with high density setting. The easier routes still had very interesting movement and there were plenty of challenging routes to keep us busy.
Really Great Gym! Very excited to see a dedicated bouldering gym in Ellensburg. The routes were creative and graded well! Tough for me personally to justify paying the price for the size of the gym and I’d love to see more routes on the wall.
Our 10 year old grand daughter, visiting from Texas, had so much fun. Jordan is very friendly, helpful & encouraging. She felt like she had success! Thank you!
Birthday parties at Fourth Ascent Climbing Center
Fourth Ascent Climbing Center hosts birthday parties — confirmed on their own site. Climbing parties come with staff who handle the harnesses and belaying, so parents can mostly watch. 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.
Kids classes & camps at Fourth Ascent Climbing Center
Reviews and the gym's own info mention kids programs at Fourth Ascent Climbing Center — climbing classes, school-break camps, or a youth team where kids learn technique from coaches instead of just scrambling around. Program schedules and age groups change each season, so check the current lineup before you plan around one.
