Already been through a belay course?

Our belay test is free and is required in order to belay in the gym. You can take the belay test anytime the gym is open.

There are various methods of belaying used in climbing today, and for our belay test we will accept any method that matches the style of climbing available in the gym, as long as it is being preformed safely.

If you have not belayed in a long time, it would be in your best interest to attend one of our free belay certification classes.


Want to climb but don't have a climbing partner?

The WREC Climbing Gym offers staff belays between 3:00-10:00pm Monday-Friday and 3:00-9:00pm on Sundays. The WREC Climbing Gym also has a large area dedicated to bouldering - climbing short distances off the ground with the assistance of thick padding to soften any falls.


Need Equipment?

Climbing gear equipment is available to any WREC member free of charge.  This includes harness, shoes, and chalk. For those who have passed our belay test, we have belay devices and locking carabineers available.

WREC members wishing to use our climbing shoes must provide their own socks...No socks, no climbing shoes.
