Movement Baker emphasizes sport and lead climbing with tall walls, a moonwall training feature, and a weight room with Rogue equipment. Bouldering section is smaller; lead wall is the standout draw.

Personally for me - one of the best climbing gyms in US. Happened to pass through Denver and all 3 days I attended MB. Huge leading section - first time I’ve seen that top rope and boulders less than leading wall. Great ventilation, tall walls, amazing roof section. Felt in love at staffπŸ€ͺ The only thing that I would recommend- increase amount of medium-level routes on a lead wall, especially at the highest section. I noticed only couple of easy ones and all other 5.12+ Definitely will come next time

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for older kids and teens already comfortable with harness climbing or keen to learn lead technique. The smaller bouldering section suits younger beginners for short sessions. Parents who climb will find the lead wall and training aids genuinely compelling alongside their kids.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Focus time on the lead wall β€” it's the standout feature reviewers specifically praise
⏰Bring your own harness and shoes if you have them; rental gear is available and demand is high on weekends
🎟️Check the Movement app for current route grades before visiting so kids can target appropriate climbs
