Outdoor climbing on real rock is true rock climbing as it was meant to be. Come out and experience some real cliffs on some of the best rock in Southern Ontario just outside of Toronto. Beginners and gym climbers can challenge themselves to climb up to 80ft with vultures soaring the sky and breathtaking views. Our low participant to instructor ratio ensures that you will get all the personal attention you need. With the coaching of our top-notch instructors, you will learn how to tie into the rope, belay, and improve your climbing technique. Join us for a rewarding day outdoors, and see why this sport is so addictive.
