Itinerary:

Multiple Auto-Belays and short routes make this the most accessible of the gyms for kiddos. I'll be heading there with my 6yo. You should have at least 1 adult in your party who can belay. The expectation is for both adults and kids to climb.

Required Items to Bring:

kiddos need a climbing harness, but you can rent one. They can climb in any shoes you choose. Adults should have climbing harness, belay device and shoes. Snacks, books/side entertainment and stuffies. Kids must be 7yo to boulder I believe (check with the gym if you're unsure).
