Our Indoor Climbing Activities

Open Climbing Sessions

Your one-hour climbing session gives you access to every challenge in our arena. Try the Speed Walls and race against the clock. Test your balance on Stairway to Heaven. Tackle Astroball, Hexed, or Spaghetti Junction. Each rock wall offers different textures, shapes, and difficulty levels. Our staff fits your harness, walks you through a safety briefing, and stays on the floor to help throughout your session.

Weekday sessions start at 11:30 AM with the last climb at 7:30 PM. Weekend sessions begin at 9:30 AM, and Sunday evenings remain popular with families wrapping up their weekend. We’re open seven days a week, making it easy for Riverton families to stop by after school, on weekends, or during Utah’s cold winter months when outdoor activities aren’t an option.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does indoor climbing cost in Riverton?

Climbing session costs vary based on the day of the week and session type. Weekday sessions typically offer lower rates than weekend times. Birthday party packages and group events have separate pricing based on party size and duration. Call us at (801) 890-1519 for current rates and package details. We offer excellent value with all climbing equipment, professional instruction, and unlimited wall attempts included in every session.

What makes Clip 'n Climb South Jordan different from other climbing gyms near Riverton?

We’re the only facility in the area using automatic belay technology that eliminates the need for belay partners or certifications. Our colorful themed rock walls specifically appeal to families and first-time climbers, while traditional rock climbing gyms focus on experienced climbers and sport climbing techniques. We’ve served the Greater Salt Lake area as part of a global brand operating in 50+ countries with proven safety protocols. Plus, we welcome toddlers as young as 2, which most climbing facilities don’t accommodate.

Is indoor rock climbing or bouldering better for my family?

Indoor rock climbing with auto belays works better for families with mixed ages and abilities. Our climbing routes go higher and offer more variety with 25+ themed challenges connected to ropes and belay systems. Bouldering requires specific technique and focuses on shorter walls without harnesses. If you have young children or first-timers, our roped climbing with automatic safety systems provides a more inclusive experience. Everyone in your family can participate regardless of climbing background or fitness level.

How long does a climbing session usually take?

Your climbing session lasts one hour from the time you’re harnessed and enter the arena. Plan to arrive 15 minutes early for check-in and equipment fitting. The entire visit typically takes 90 minutes including arrival, briefing, climbing time, and departure. Weekend and Sunday sessions book quickly, so reserve your spot online in advance. We run sessions on the half-hour throughout the day and into the evenings.

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

If your child is at least 2 years old and can follow basic instructions, they’re ready to try climbing. Toddlers ages 2-4 participate in specialized Mini Mountaineer sessions with height restrictions and adult supervision. Kids 4 and up join regular climbing sessions with full arena access. Watch for signs of interest in physical challenges, climbing playground equipment, or trying new activities. Our instructors help nervous climbers feel comfortable before they start, and parents can watch from the floor.

Do you offer warranties or ongoing maintenance?

Our climbing equipment undergoes regular inspection and maintenance to meet international safety standards. The BelayMate and TruBlue auto belay systems are designed for long service life and superior safety performance. While climbing sessions don’t include warranties in the traditional sense, we guarantee a safe, well-maintained facility for every visit. If you’re not satisfied with your experience, talk to our staff members on duty who will make things right.

What climbing gear do we need to bring?

You don’t need any climbing gear or climbing equipment. We provide harnesses sized for ages 2 to adult, and all necessary safety equipment is included in your session. Just wear comfortable athletic clothing and closed-toe shoes. Avoid loose jewelry or clothing that might catch on holds. Everything else is ready when you arrive, making it easy for families to visit without investing in expensive gear.

Can adults enjoy indoor climbing or is it just for kids?

Adults love our facility as much as kids do. Our rock walls challenge all fitness levels and ages. Some walls test speed, others require problem-solving, and advanced challenges like Stairway to Heaven push experienced climbers. Many adults visit for health and fitness workouts or team-building events. The colorful environment and varied routes keep adults engaged while providing a fantastic workout that builds strength and balance.

What happens during the summer when it's too hot outside?

Summer is one of our busiest seasons because families seek cool places for indoor activities during Utah’s hot months. Our climate-controlled gym stays comfortable year-round. We offer summer camps and youth programs that keep kids active during school breaks. Drop-in climbing sessions work around vacation schedules, and extended weekend hours give families flexibility during long summer days when outdoor rock climbing isn’t comfortable.

Is Clip 'n Climb South Jordan good for corporate team building?

Our staff stays in the arena throughout every session watching and encouraging climbers. If someone feels nervous or wants to come down, they simply let go of the wall and the auto belay system lowers them gently to the floor. No embarrassment, no pressure. We celebrate every attempt whether you reach the top or decide to stop partway. Many climbers who felt scared on their first try find the courage to go higher during the same visit after seeing how safe the system keeps them.
