Maitland Valley Grotto
199 Anglesea St. N7A0A1 Goderich, ON, Canada

What a typical Sunday afternoon looks like here. After routes are put up, we forerun! This means having different body types, strength levels, etc climb these new routes over and over to ensure they are fun, flowing, and doable! Thanks as always to our amazing setters @gauvinmaxime and @ruthyginthehouse! With special thanks to @mvgclimber for helping us forerun to make sure tall people don't have any sort of unfair advantages in the climbs

Next Saturday is Halloween so book a time and come climb in costume! The best dressed person in each booking slot will win either 2 weeks membership or 2 day passes (shoe rental not included) Shoe rental will be free for any climber in costume who needs shoes, and of course there will be candy for anyone in costume as well!... We have limited capacity so book into one of our timeslots at www.bookeo.com/maitlandvalleygrotto! Please note: covid friendly masks are still required in costume

What our Saturday nights look like! Stripping and cleaning holds to make room for those sweet new routes every week :)

Hey everyone! Hope you're all having a great week. Sorry for the late post but here are our hours this holiday weekend. While we haven't taken a holiday Monday off yet, we have decided to take this one to give ourselves an extra day to rest and see our families. You can still book time of course for today and tomorrow to climb though! And we look forward to seeing all your faces on the wall.... Stay tuned too as next week we're starting a lot more posting with a lot more video content again!

It's the end of the week and another section of wall is cleaned and ready to reset. If you follow our stories, you'll know that we request you all to send us pump up songs on these long Saturdays to keep us hyped and working into the late night and early hours of the morning - and then post your requests as they come in! To all of those who are up suggesting songs to keep us hanging in there while we strip the walls and clean the holds, thank you for making these Saturday nig...hts way better! If you've got some awesome energizing tunes you think we need to know about, wait til next Saturday night when we put up our story asking for more songs! We'd love to hear from you!

New cave climbs this week! Of course that means the vertical wall is reset at the end of this week, so come book your session to finish up any projects you have! Thank you to our member @uhmyeahmehere for being in our "check out the new climbs" photo this week!

The prow has been reset this week (with another one of our shiny new volumes!), so you all know what that means! Final week for the cave before it gets reset! Do you have a favorite section of our wall? Let us know! Thank you to our member @mrs3eland for letting us use this shot of her sending hard on the new routes today!

Something new we're going to be doing! Featured climbs for the new set we do every week! This week we reset the slab, and this white holds climb (taped pink as an advanced climb in the v4/v5 range) has clearly been the favorite!

We post a lot of adults (young and old!) climbing - but we have a lot of kids who are members too! For the most part, anyone who is independently mobile can climb. So if you're home schooling this year and need a physical activity, or your regular activities haven't been able to resume just yet, book a session with us and come try out our bouldering wall!

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a good weekend! Our slab wall has been reset with some fantastic new routes for you all to try. There's some really nice movement to be found on these so book a time to come try them! With that being said, it's the final week for the climbs on the prow, so make sure you finish up any climbs you haven't completed on that section of wall before we take them down Saturday night.... Thanks to our member @lyssarae8 for being in the weekly "new climbs!" post!

New set of climbs on the slab wall with new holds and one of our shiny new Volumes! @gauvinmaxime and @ruthyginthehouse really outdid themselves this time :) Book a time this week to come try all our new toys on the wall, and remember that means you've only got this week left to send the far side of our boulder if you have any problems remaining before they are gone forever and reset! Thank you to our member @m_taylor88 for coming to climb today and letting us use this awesome shot on her on the new routes!
