Well determine who is belay certified, then split up into groups to do some climbing. There are enough routes to challenge both novices and experts. There are also @ 3 climbs that are self belay and a bouldering area (belayer not needed). Climb untill gym closes @ 10pm.

· Atlanta Rocks! Intown is the largest indoor climbing gym in the Southeast, with more than 12,000 square feet of professionally-designed, seamless climbing surface.

· Atlanta Rocks! Intown has approximately 50 top-rope stations, averaging three climbing routes per rope with difficulty levels ranging from beginner (5.4) through advanced (5.13).

· Atlanta Rocks! Intown has locker rooms, showers and aerobic exercise equipment.

Please let us know if you are a certified belayer, or are interested in testing for your AtlantaRocks certification.

Beginners are welcome....Please note that a belayer is required for each climb. Please consider taking the belay test so that there will be more belayers for the climb (very simple test of knot tying and simple belay skills which can be taught in a few minutes. Please inquire at Atlanta Rocks.) The more belayers we have, the more YOU get to climb!Keep in mind climbing will be limited by the number of belayers available. The leader adn other certified belayers will be climbing as well but will certainly help out when not climbing. Pls contact the leader with any questions.
