Private Instruction
Looking to master a specific skill or accomplish a particular goal? Or maybe you just want the instructor to yourself on a day of your own choosing. Regardless of the reason or the size of your party, just give us a call to set up a private lesson tailored to your needs and schedule. This is a very common choice for many of our clients.
  • $275 + $100 each additional person
  • 9am to aproximately 4pm

  • Family Climbing
    Make rock climbing the new outdoor activity that the whole family can enjoy together. It’ll be just you and your family with your own guide for the day – no set agenda or expectations here. This is a great way to introduce your kids to climbing (or if your child is already an avid climber, we can help you understand what it’s all about!). Full days are preferable in order to make the most out of your experience, but if you have younger children with shorter attention spans, we do have a half day option (Saturdays excluded). Please call the climbing school for more information on how your family can benefit from this special day.

As well as great rock climbing, there are more than 14 miles of marked trails and 20 miles of unmarked trails available for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding in the Allamuchy Natural Area. The Musconetcong River, with some of the best trout fishing in the state, winds through Allamuchy Mountain State Park. Several miles of trails crisscross through the forests and marshlands of the park. Waterloo Village, which is located on the banks of the Morris Canal, is well known for its historic buildings and diverse cultural programs of classical and popular music as well as dance and opera.
