Description

Rock climbing is an exciting sport that conjures the image of adventure and can be practiced from an early age. In Utah, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy this outdoor activity due to its many mountainous areas and rocky formations. On this 5-day Utah climbing camp for children, we offer kids a chance to experience the Salt Lake area nature whilst learning a fun and challenging activity.

On the 5-day rock climbing camp, kids will explore different types of terrains and techniques. They will become familiar with granite, quartzite and limestone rocks. They will also learn how to belay, rappel and maybe try some multi pitch climbing. As they learn rock climbing skills, kids will acquire physical strength and also a feeling of accomplishment after tackling a big challenge. The time spent outdoors, interacting with other children and with the surrounding natural environment is also very stimulating for them.

The camp is for kids between 9 to 12 years old. Each day we will start off at 10 am and have some outdoor fun until 4pm. Parents or guardians will have to drop off their kids at designated meeting points. The guide will decide the meeting point on the night before depending on weather and group conditions.

If you are looking for a great summer alternative for your kids, then you have found it. Don't hesitate to book a place for them now on this 5-day rock climbing camp in Utah!

We also offer a rock climbing program for teens that you can book here!
