First timers

Everything you need to know about climbing at Cliffhanger.

Welcome to Cliffhanger!

It’s time to climb. 

Cliffhanger is the perfect introduction to indoor rock climbing. We’ll show you the ropes and make sure you’re equipped to climb your way to the top. 

Climbing is a great way to stay active, hang out with good people, and surprise yourself with what you can do.
