Intro to Climbing at Great Western Power Co.

About this class

Great Western Power Company's walk-in intro class covers movement fundamentals, knot tying, and basic belay technique in a 90-minute session before transitioning to guided top-rope climbing on the gym's 48-foot walls with a day pass included for the rest of the day. The former steam plant building creates a distinctive atmosphere unlike most climbing gyms and the Uptown Oakland location near the 19th Street BART station makes it an easy after-work destination. Shoe rental is available at the front desk.
