During the school holidays, The Rock is open to the public from noon seven days a week, except AFL grand final day (September 30).

Rock climbing is an ideal activity for the whole family to enjoy together and their instructors are always available to show beginners the ropes as well as having challenges enough for every ability and experience level.

Parents can relax with a coffee while the kids experience the thrill of climbing during their supervised holiday sessions.

These climbing sessions run from 2pm to 4pm each Tuesday and Thursday over the holidays. Bookings are recommended.

During the school term The Rock offers Climb-it Club for primary aged kids and Team Rock for high-school aged kids.

Two sessions of structured and supervised climbing and training per week, working up to the end of term outdoor trip to test out their skills on the local cliffs.

These groups have also had some great success this year in the State Lead and Bouldering championships with podiums and wins across all age categories.

Since 2001 The Rock Adventure Centre has been Geelong’s Vertical Obsession.
