Perched in the trees at Muskegon Luge Adventure Sports Park, the Rock Climbing Pass puts climbers — kids and adults alike — on a 38‑foot outdoor wall with three sides of rock holds and a cargo net, secured throughout by an auto‑belay system that lets you rise and return safely in roughly 45 minutes.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE WALL

A 38‑Foot, Three‑Sided Climb with Treetop Views

The climb reaches 38 feet and features three faces of rock holds plus a cargo net, delivering a literal treetop vantage once you crest the top.

THE SAFETY

Auto‑Belay Security for Climbers of All Ages

An auto‑belay device attaches to your harness, uses magnetic braking to arrest a fall and automatically takes up slack as you climb, allowing climbers to be lowered safely without down‑climbing.

THE PACE

Short, Focused Sessions — Three Attempts to Reach the Top

A Rock Climbing Pass covers an approximately 45‑minute session and includes three attempts to reach the summit of the wall, making it a concentrated challenge that fits easily into a day at the park.

What the day feels like

What It Feels Like to Climb the Pass

The experience is concise and hands‑on: guests sign a waiver, are fitted to climb using the park’s auto‑belay system, and move through up to three attempts on multiple faces of the wall, trading the ground’s perspective for a brief treetop view once they reach the top.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this pass suits — and who should plan differently.

Short‑on‑time visitorsIdeal for visitors who want a single, focused climbing experience—passes cover an approximately 45‑minute session with up to three attempts.
4
Very small or light participantsNot suitable for anyone under the 30‑lb minimum weight requirement; check minimums and waiver rules before booking.
