This non-instructional, social club at our Fort Garry campus provides you with the opportunity to share your passion for climbing with others. The club practices the art of bouldering and does not do much rope climbing.
The club mainly meets at the Bouldering Wall in the Frank Kennedy Centre. The club has periodic access to the Climbing Wall in the Active Living Centre.
As with all UM Rec Clubs, UM students must make up 65% of the club’s membership to promote strong student participation and leadership.
Club membership is open to students, staff and alumni only.
You cannot purchase a day pass to access the wall as part of the UM Climbing Club; you must pay the annual membership fee.
Find the Climbing Club schedule on the REC Clubs Schedule and the UM Recreation Services mobile app.
