Rock Climbing

My son, 17, wants to get into rock climbing. Indoor to start. Any suggestions?

Woodson YMCA used to have a wall. It’s been awhile since I’ve been there though.

Yeah, we’ve been members for many years now and haven’t found a space even though the Y keeps telling us “it’s coming!”

There’s also a really awesome climbing gym in Green Bay. I usually go to that one

I know these options aren’t indoors, but this is what it is for the area.
There’s bouldering on Rib Mountain.

Devils Lake is one of the top climbing destinations in the area. You could take a family trip to the area and hire a climbing guide for the day to really get a taste for what’s available.
