How To

Get Started

At the end of the day, we can likely accommodate groups of any size, or those that have unique needs, but here's how we recommend getting started.

  • Choose a day and time that works for your team. We are open morning through night all week long, including most holidays (except for 4th of July, Thanksgiving, and Christmas). Once you're in the door, you can stay for the rest of the day, but we recommend, 1-3 hours for your visit. We are least busy Monday - Friday from 6a - 5p, but you're welcome to book a group visit at anytime that suits your team!

  • Decide what you want to do while you're here. Climbing together for an hour or two common, but we can offer so much more!

    • Bouldering - With minimal instruction, your team can go off and climb all around our bouldering terrain. No ropes, just your hands and feet, and our big pads to help catch you.

    • Tall Walls - After a 5-10 minute lesson from our staff, you can tackle our taller walls and reach for the sky!

    • Professional Meeting Space - Both of our Pittsburgh locations have private rooms equipped with tables, chairs, and technology so you can hold a meeting for roughly up to 20 people. We can accommodate you in Erie, but our meeting spaces are open and more integrated with the public spaces, kind of like a coffee shop or lounge. You could hold a meeting before, after, or in the middle of your climbing session! The space would be yours to enjoy while you're here.

    • Yoga / Movement / Meditation Class - With enough advanced notice and depending on the day and time, it may be possible for us to book one of our amazing yoga or fitness teachers to host a private class!

    • Food + Beverage - All ASCEND locations have light snacks and drinks for sale, but we also work with a lot of incredible eateries that can cater your event. This could be as simple as coffee and sweets, or more filling like sandwiches and sides!

Pricing

We realize that most companies, like us, don't have huge budgets or dedicated personnel for booking this type of thing, so we aim to keep things simple and affordable.

For just $35 per person, your team will get to boulder, climb on our tall walls, use our meeting space, and get all the required rental gear! Booking a class and getting your event catered would be an additional cost, which depends greatly on the size of your group.

But if you schedule your visit anytime Monday - Friday from 10a-3p, it'll be $29 per person!

Just want the meeting space and save climbing for another day? We got you covered for $100 for up to 4 hours. Sometimes it's nice to change up your perspective!
