How to get here: we’re located at 701 Rohlwing Rd, Arlington Heights, IL.. We have plenty of free parking on site.
What to wear: We recommend wearing comfortable athletic clothing that allows you to move freely. Pants or long shorts that cover your knees are best. If you will be renting climbing shoes, we also recommend wearing socks.
What to expect: When you arrive, our friendly staff will get you checked in and geared up, then walk you through a facility and safety orientation, which typically takes 15 minutes. We appreciate your patience – this orientation is required, and it’s the best way for us to make sure you know where everything is and how to manage risk effectively while at First Ascent.
We look forward to climbing with you!
