Toronto: Urban Wild 1-Week Climbing Camp

This is the summer you start rock climbing!

Join our group for five action-packed days learning to climb and exploring amazing Rattlesnake Point. Under the guidance of our experienced instructors, you’ll learn new skills, build strength and gain the confidence to tackle the real rock faces west of Toronto.

What to expect 

Each day begins at our base in Don Valley Brickworks Park (9:00am to 4:00pm), where you’ll receive instruction and prepare for your climbing adventure. On Monday, you’ll learn the basics of climbing at the Brickworks, which you’ll then put into practice at a local climbing gym on Tuesday. You’ll spend Wednesday and Thursday at Rattlesnake Point, where you’ll put into practice what you’ve learned on the rock. Wednesday night you’ll also have the opportunity to camp at Rattlesnake Point, and on the last day of the program you can put your climbing skills to the test on our high ropes challenge tower and see how far you’ve come!

Get ready to challenge yourself, connect with nature, and leave the program with the skills and confidence to climb rocks. The Urban Wild Climbing program not only provides an exciting climbing experience, but also the opportunity to make new friends and develop important social-emotional skills.

And that’s not all: On Wednesday night, you’ll have the opportunity to camp out on the Toronto Islands to hone your camping skills and bond with your fellow adventurers.
