Climbing Wall
The Whitworth University Recreation Center offers a great space to practice climbing skills indoors. The center features 2,300 square feet of climbable space, 10 top-rope anchors and a bouldering area, which includes a cave
Getting started
If it is your first time climbing at the wall for the academic year, you will need to complete a safety orientation with a climbing wall attendant. Upon completion, the safety orientation is valid for one year from the time it is completed.
Bouldering
Bouldering is available during U-Rec facility hours. Please check in at the front desk to receive clearance to climb while the wall is not attended. You may not boulder at the wall without receiving a red wrist band from the front desk or climbing wall staff.
Hours
Monday-Friday: 6 a.m.-10 p.m.
Saturday: 9 a.m.-7 p.m.
Sunday: 2 p.m.-7 p.m.
Note: Auto-belay may only be used while the climbing wall is staffed.
