What we’re about
ASCEND Erie officially opened on November 3, 2023, bringing Erie residents this much desired sports and recreational amenity. This 25,000 SF facility, which is part of the Erie Downtown Development Corporation’s revitalization efforts, features 50’ lead climbing, top-roping, and auto-belay walls, ample bouldering terrain, a tranquil yoga room, an array of fitness equipment and climbing training tools, slacklines, a retail store featuring today's most trusted brands, your favorite concessions, modern restrooms with showers, changing areas, and gender neutral options, comfortable lounge space to relax, work, and socialize, and of course, tons of glass - natural light!
This facility was designed to suit all types of climbers: beginners, outdoor crushers, competitors, those who have adaptive needs, groups, youth and families. You name it, we've got it.
