This place was amazing. My daughter (age: 7) and I loved climbing with them. Our guide was super knowledgeable and amazing with our daughter!!!! Will definitely climb with them again!

Brandon was awesome! I am 57, overweight and have a fear of heights but he encouraged me to make it to the top every time! Even if you cant do one pull up you can rock climb. I am proof.

Sylvan Rocks Climbing School is fantastic! They worked great with the Girl Scouts in our group (11-12nyear old's) and were very patient with the adults! We had a fun experience and learned a lot. A number of the girls are looking to continue rock climbing in the future because of the positive experience during our session.
