Description
ARQ Mountain Centre is climbing, fitness, wellness. It's an alternative form of exercise that brings community together. Living in one of the most beautiful places in B.C. – mountains encompassing our every-day lives, having an active lifestyle is pretty much a must. And for several years, our goal was to always add to this lifestyle; by providing an alternative form of exercise that allows for growth in the community, a healthier way of living, and opportunity for outside adventure.
Gordon McArthur and Fraser Bowden, along with their respective families, welcome you to Arq Mountain Centre: a facility featuring state of the art climbing walls designed and built by Walltopia, a fun zone with a crazy awesome playground, dedicated toddler area, and climbing walls built for youth to have fun, designed by Atomic Playgrounds, a fitness area, yoga studio, wellness centre, retail and café. . It’s built for community, for the social aspect, for the love of climbing, and most importantly…it’s built for your entire family. The goal at ARQ is to provide you with the best customer service possible, so that you have a great experience…every time.

A new idea in the bouldering area- New routes, but also sprayed holds. This gives opportunity for creative movement, social efforts, and specific training. Let us know what you think (we think it'll be awesome).
Youth
Just a reminder that our after-school "drop-in" programming starts next week. We have openings for Tuesdays and Thursdays 4-5pm, and 6-7pm (for ages 5-12+). Register online! This is a great way for your kids to learn about climbing; working on movement, mobility, social skills, and overall an opportunity to have lots of fun in a controlled/safe environment. Each week will consist of new games, various instructors, and a good time filled with lots of roped climbing and bouldering! Day passes are included in the class prices
