Sessions start with a quick safety briefing from our certified instructors who explain the auto belay system and show you how to clip in. Then you’re free to try any challenge as many times as you want. Perfect for families, friends, or anyone looking for a fun way to stay active during winter months or busy summer weeks.

Kids and adults climb side by side here. The colorful walls create an exciting environment where new friends form quickly and everyone cheers each other on. Whether you’re building fitness through full-body sport or just looking for something cool to do, our facility delivers.

Mini Mountaineer Sessions

Toddlers ages 2 to 4 get their own specialized climbing times designed just for their skill level. Each child must have a non-climbing adult supervising at a 1:1 ratio. We restrict climbing height to 3.5 meters for safety while still giving little ones the challenge and confidence boost they love. These sessions introduce young children to climbing in a supportive setting where they can explore at their own pace.

The Mini Mountaineer program focuses on building coordination and courage through age-appropriate walls. Parents love watching their toddlers discover what they can accomplish. It’s never too early to start building those skills and that passion for active play.

What makes Clip 'n Climb South Jordan different from other climbing facilities?

We’re part of a global network of 380+ facilities, bringing proven safety systems and innovative wall designs to the Herriman area. Our TruBlue auto belay technology eliminates the need for belay partners, making climbing immediately accessible to first-timers. Unlike traditional rock climbing gyms that can feel intimidating, our colorful themed walls appeal to all ages. We’ve specialized in family-friendly climbing since joining the worldwide Clip ‘n Climb brand.

Is climbing or bouldering better for beginners?

Our facility uses auto belay systems on vertical walls rather than traditional bouldering. This means you’re always connected to a safety system that catches you automatically. For beginners and families, this approach offers more height and variety than bouldering floors while maintaining superior safety. You get the thrill of climbing higher without the technical skill requirements or fear of falling. Both adults and children find our system approachable from day one.

How long does a typical climbing session take?

Sessions run for one hour from the scheduled start time. We ask you to arrive 15 minutes early for check-in and equipment fitting. The first 10 minutes of your session cover the mandatory safety briefing. This leaves about 50 minutes of actual climbing time where you can attempt walls repeatedly. Most families find one hour provides plenty of challenge without wearing out younger children. You can always book multiple sessions or return another day.Sessions run for one hour from the scheduled start time. We ask you to arrive 15 minutes early for check-in and equipment fitting.

How do I know if my child is ready for indoor climbing?

If your child can walk confidently and follow basic instructions, they’re ready to try climbing. We welcome ages 2 and up with specialized toddler sessions for the youngest climbers. Kids who enjoy playgrounds, jungle gyms, or active play typically love our facility. The colorful walls and game-like challenges appeal to children who might not consider themselves athletic. Our staff adapts instruction to each person’s comfort level and ability.

Do you offer ongoing memberships for regular climbers?

We offer various membership and pass options for families who want to climb regularly. Memberships provide better value than paying per session and give you flexibility to visit whenever works for your schedule. Talk to our desk staff about current membership packages, multi-visit passes, and special rates for local residents. Members often form a tight-knit community and enjoy watching each other progress over time.

What should we wear for climbing?

Wear comfortable athletic clothes that allow full range of motion. Avoid loose pants that might catch on holds. Closed-toe athletic shoes are required. We provide all harnesses and safety equipment. You don’t need special climbing shoes or gear. Leave jewelry at home and tie back long hair. Dress in layers since you’ll warm up quickly once you start climbing. We have cubbies for storing personal items.

Can adults climb or is this just for kids?

Adults absolutely climb here and many find it just as challenging and fun as their children do. Our walls accommodate climbers up to full adult height and weight. Parents often discover climbing alongside their kids creates amazing bonding moments. Some of our most passionate regular climbers are adults who started as skeptical spectators. The fitness benefits and mental challenge appeal to people of all ages.

Is climbing safe for children with special needs?

We welcome children of all abilities and offer adaptive programming for special needs groups. Our patient staff works with each climber at their own pace. The automatic belay system provides consistent, reliable safety regardless of a child’s physical or cognitive abilities. We’ve successfully served sensory-sensitive participants, children with mobility challenges, and various developmental needs. Contact us to discuss your child’s specific situation and how we can accommodate them.

What's the difference between your facility and outdoor rock climbing?

Our indoor environment stays comfortable year-round with climate control, consistent conditions, and no weather delays. The auto belay systems eliminate the need for rope management skills or a belay partner. Every route gets inspected and maintained regularly. You don’t need chalk, harnesses, or specialized technique to participate. While outdoor climbing offers its own rewards, indoor climbing provides accessibility, variety, and convenience that outdoor routes can’t match. It’s the perfect introduction to the sport.
