Your first visit
No appointment is necessary to climb with us. Climbers can simply walk in to set up a day pass and shoe rental. If guests have not had an opportunity to fill out a waiver in advance, staff will provide a tablet or a QR code to fill out the waiver in the facility. After setting up a day pass and shoe rental, staff will provide a facility and safety orientation to ensure climbers and guests are aware of our policies so that they can manage their risk while they climb. This is a great opportunity to ask facility questions along with any current specials. Climbers will have full use of the facility for the entire day and may even leave the facility to enjoy the many other food and entertainment offerings in the area. Once finished, climbers return their shoe rental to the front desk. Day passes may be upgraded to membership or punch cards so please remember to ask staff about this before leaving the facility for the day.
Make sure you have a waiver on file with us
Climbing is inherently dangerous and while we will give every new climber a full orientation of our facility along with our safety protocols to help climbers manage their risk, we want to make sure you are comfortable climbing with us. Every person on the climbing floor must have a risk acknowledgment form on file with us. If you have filled one out at our Wallingford, CT facility, we will have it on file, but if this is your first time, or if it’s your first time climbing at one of our Connecticut facilities, please fill one out before arriving. All participants under the age of 18 must have a risk acknowledgement form filled out by a parent or legal guardian.

Purchase a day pass
With a full day of climbing, you can enjoy our facility from the time we open until we close at 11PM. Day passes are non-transferable, but may be used across multiple locations on the date of purchase and are active for the entire day so you can leave the facility and return at your leisure. We highly recommend wearing comfortable, athletic clothing during your visit, but climbing shoes are required. You can rent shoes from us or you can purchase a pair from our retail shop. Remember, climbers can always upgrade any day pass to a membership and use.
If climbers have their own climbing shoes, they can save $5 by telling staff and foregoing the cost to rent shoes. Climbing shoes MUST be approved for climbing on our walls and street shoes are not allowed on the climbing mats or on the walls.

Renting shoes
We provide shoe rental for first-time climbers so climbing shoes will not need to be purchased prior to your first visit. That said, there’s nothing like climbing in shoes that fit your unique foot shape. The best way to find the perfect climbing shoe is to talk to our knowledgable staff and try from a selection of climbing shoes on our walls! Along with shoes, we offer chalk, bags, training gear, performance clothing, and more.
No experience necessary
If you have the desire to climb, we will provide the opportunity for you to do so. We have always believed that climbing is for all ages and abilities. As long as you have the physical ability to climb a ladder, we have climbs that will provide an appropriate challenge. If you have a financial barrier, a disability, or require some adaptation to climb, contact us at Questions@RockSpotClimbing.com so that we can learn more and find a way to make climbing accessible for you.
Climb on.
