Plan your visit
- Gear rental nearly every climbing gym rents shoes (~$5–8 typical) and chalk; harness rental is often bundled with a ropes pass
- Waiver always required at climbing gyms — sign it online before you go to skip the front-desk line
- Belaying ropes gyms teach belaying or check your certification at the desk; bouldering and auto-belays need no partner and no belay test
- First timer? bouldering needs zero experience — rent shoes and walk in; staff will point you at the easiest problems
- Yoga & fitness mentioned alongside the climbing — ask about the class schedule and what a pass includes
- Memberships available — worth asking about if you'd climb more than a few times a month

From the reviews
Staff is super friendly and welcoming. Gym offers bouldering and top rope. Great climbing experience!
Full-Time UWF student here. Great addition to the gym - staff are always friendly and ready to help. Equipment is provided for you - shoes, harness, chalk. They have Top rope and bouldering, they usually change up the holds and such pretty often. 10/10 addition and I hope they expand the rock climbing.
Staff is very friendly and helpful. They taught me how to belay. Although it is a smaller facility, it offers a wide range of climbing options. They have top rope and bouldering. As well as a rock-wall treadmill and an adjustable climbing wall that allows you to change both the angle and the routes.
Hi all!! Im not a student or alumni. 'Fellow rock climber in need!' But i do very much want to climb at UWF! Is there any way i can tag along/ get any help to access to the facilities?
