adventure rock

My daughter (14) and I spent a few hours climbing the walls at Adventure Rock last month. It was our first time there, but we'll be back. What makes it unique compared to other climbing gyms we've tried is the auto belay system. This eliminates the need for a person to stand below the climber and take up the slack on the rope. What that meant for us was I didn't spend the entire time holding the rope and watching her climb! I climbed right alongside her. Note that not all of their ropes use this system...some are traditional. But there were plenty of the auto style to keep us entertained and challenged for several hours. Nice facility with a friendly, helpful staff.

Let me start by saying, I had no expectations when we decided to drive 1+ hours to Adventure Rock. My kids are 12 and 13 and there are few things that they get WILD over, unless of course it involves an app or controller. Registration was easy, the class instruction was wonderful not to mention the staff. The kids climbed for about 3 hours and LOVED the timed climb. They would both rate this place a 5 of 5 stars. What a GREAT 'physical' attraction that kept my kids engaged. We will be back again. btw.. Subway is right next door, don't even have to take off your gear to eat. REALLY convienent!

We took a short trip to Milwaukee, our 10 year old son loves indoor rock climbing and he wanted to do that over Spring Break. We found Adventure Rock and went two times over 3 days. The staff is knowledgeable, trustworthy and kind. The rock climbing can be done in several rooms and various degrees of difficulties. They had many auto-belays and a couple of caves for bouldering. We arrived late morning, early afternoon on weekdays and it was not crowded. Hubby and sons all climbed and loved it. Very nice gym, wish there were more of these gyms.During our mini vacation we climbed at Adventure Rock, skated on the olympic oval at the Pettit, rode the indoor mountain bike trails at Ray's. Of those activities our 10 year old loved Adventure Rock the best!
