​

Okay, now that that's out of the way... we all know kids are natural climbers and explorers, but here at the New River Gorge, there are precious few indoor spaces for your kids to climb and explore. We are that space! 

​

We are an all-bouldering gym located just a few miles from the New River Gorge National Park, in Fayetteville, WV. If you're new to the sport, bouldering is a form of rock climbing performed on short routes, or "problems." No ropes or harnesses needed. We also have a kid-specific climbing area for ages 3-10, which is filled with fun challenges and exploration opportunities!
