supervision ratios.
all visiting families are required to follow our supervision ratios for children:
0–4yrs (1:1 spectating only)
kids under 5 yrs may spectate only & are required to have 1:1 supervision at all times — adults supervising climbing children cannot also supervise spectating children.
5–9yrs (1:2)
an adult must provide close supervision & role model safe & courteous climbing etiquette — we do not expect children at this age to have the awareness & ability to follow the safety rules on their own.
10–11yrs (1:4)
adults must keep a clear line of sight with all children & may climb together by taking turns — children at this age are expected to follow the safety rules & be mindful of the people around them & fall zones.
12–13yrs (1:6)
youths may be supervised within a clear line of sight & are expected to follow the safety rules & know the bouldering gym etiquette — they are encouraged to lead by example for younger children.
families with different age groups:
- supervision of kids across age groups defaults to the youngest child’s supervision ratio & requirements.
- the main gym is for kids 12+ only, even when climbing in families across age groups. a separate supervising adult is required if older kids wish to climb in the main gym & younger children are climbing in FamilyHaus.
- children 0–4 yrs may spectate so long as they are supervised 1:1 by a dedicated adult.
please note:
- supervising adults are responsible for making sure their kids are following Haus Rules at all times.
- families will be given one reminder only & may have their visits suspended following multiple warnings.
