Try your hands (and feet) at our 30-foot rock-climbing wall! Either strap into a harness for belayed climbing or scramble over our two large boulders and caves. Vertical walls, overhangs, roofs, slabs and chimneys are sure to challenge all skill levels. Bring your own shoes and equipment or rent ours for a small fee. Waiver of claims is required for all participants. Participants under the age of 18 must have the waiver signed by a parent or legal guardian.

Rock Climbing

Bouldering
Bouldering is defined as unroped rock climbing close to the ground. Bouldering is the fastest way to improve your climbing strength and build up your endurance. It is the purest form of rock climbing and shoes are the only equipment needed. The wall at the Nampa Recreation Center has two large boulders, a bouldering cave, a training area with a campus and system training board, 60 feet of traversable walls and a variable overhanging wall to meet everyone’s needs.
