Climbing with Kids? Here’s How It Works
For safety, younger participants require adult supervision. Some age groups need a participating adult (1 adult per 4 children) and the adult is required to purchase a ticket. If participation is not required, an adult must stay onsite and actively watch from the ground.
Please check activity guidelines for specific supervision rules by clicking “see more info” in the activity tiles or click to button below for FAQs.
