About us

Welcome  to Red Rock Climbing Wall, the first indoor climbing gym in Prince Edward Island. Our community of climbers has been growing steadily, but until now, we were forced to travel out of province to pursue our passion. Red Rock Climbing Wall is changing that.

Our team is made up of seasoned rock climbers, sports enthusiasts, and sports business operators. We are all passionate about combining fun with athletic activity. We want to create a space where Islanders can come together to climb, have fun, and get fit.

At Red Rock Climbing Wall, we are committed to changing the way Islanders think about birthday parties, office outings, and events. We want to inspire people to put down their X-box controllers and climb onto our walls. With six combined climbing walls at various heights and an ever-changing pattern of climbing holds, Red Rock Wall is perfect for beginners and can also challenge experienced climbers.

Our goal is to turn the Norton Diamond Indoor Soccer Complex into an activity hub for active Islanders. We have big plans for the future, so keep your eyes peeled for more projects coming soon.

At Red Rock Climbing Wall, we are dedicated to providing a fun and safe environment for climbers of all levels. Whether you are a seasoned climber or a beginner, we welcome you to join our community and experience the thrill of climbing. So come on down and climb with us!

    Matt Cormier, Operator

    I started climbing the summer of 2011 on a trip to the west coast to visit my younger brother. Since that day climbing has become a very important part of my life and has taken me far and wide. I couldn’t imagine what life would look like without having been given the opportunity to face my fears and get well outside my comfort zone. Although I am very much still afraid of heights, each and every time I step off the ground I know i have an incredible opportunity to learn about myself, what my body is capable of, and just what this big open planet we live on has to offer.

    Hi, my name is Ghenyk! I work at Red Rock Climbing Wall, Upstreet Craft Beer Corner, and am also a substitute cook at a daycare. When I’m not climbing, pouring beers or cooking for the kiddos I enjoy my free time hanging out with friends, riding either my road or mountain bike, and playing video games. I started working at Red Rock Climbing Wall in April of 2021 but was going casually for a while before that. Climbing is one of my favorite pastimes and I love the sense of community that accompanies the sport. I believe climbing is an excellent confidence builder, and just a super fun time if you're looking to try something new. I hope you’ll consider coming around to meet myself, Ethan or Matt and enjoy some of the many routes we have to offer and enjoy some good times!
