The GO Outdoors program provides the Rutgers University community with diverse and interesting adventure-oriented activities that present both mental and physical challenge to our participants. Our classes & trips provide an excellent opportunity for experiencing new knowledge or experiential event.
Our trips range from half-day and day trips up through week-long expeditions. Join us in exploring recreational opportunities in the surrounding area, or find new adventures far from home. Our knowledgeable student trip leaders will facilitate an experience that you won’t soon forget.
The Rutgers University Rockwall is located at the College Avenue Gym.
Experience the vertical world of rock climbing on our 2200 sq. ft. of sculpted terrain at the College Avenue Gym. Climb along sheer verticals, sculpted bulges, and feel the adrenaline as you hang on twenty feet above the floor.
Come with a friend or be belayed by one of our staff members. All belayers must be certified by Rutgers Rock Gym staff, regardless of previous certifications at other gyms. Our staff will set you up with equipment and help you learn the basics of climbing indoors. No previous experience is necessary.
Belaying is the technique climbers use to assist one another while ascending and descending.
Want to become belay certified? Sign up for one of our 2-hour introduction classes and we’ll teach you the basic safety skills and techniques. For those with previous belaying experience, test out with our 10-minute skills test: available on a walk-in basis.
