Climbing Wall
Climbing is a sport the entire family can enjoy. Whether or not they are interested in climbing themselves, parents can learn the skills necessary to accompany their children to the wall and share the rush reaching the summit.
There are several routes to challenge everyone from the novice to the veteran. Experienced climbing staff will be on hand during open use hours for your safety and enjoyment.
September 2023 update: Due to a lack of instructors, we are not currently offering climbing classes. If you are interested in working at the climbing wall, please contact Billy at wkeppen@livonia.gov.
