The IWU Climbing Wall is 25' high and offers six changeable courses with varying degrees of difficulty. The large size of the wall allows for four climbers simultaneous ascend the wall to the glass ceiling above.

Whenever the wall is open for use, trained staff oversee all climbs. Trained belayers (spotters) work the gri-gris (belay devices) while climbers ascend, gently lowering them to the floor below should they loose their grip. A pit has been formed into the floor and covered with thick padding for additional safety.

During the school year the wall is usually open:
  Monday-Thursday 6:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.
  Saturday 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.
  Sunday 1:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.
