Come branch out at the Pathfinder Open Community Climb!

Tree climbing is a fun and unique way to get outside, get unplugged, and spend time with family and friends. Get a bird’s eye view as you choose the height of your ascent into the canopy of a beautiful live oak, safely tethered by a rope and harness. This is a great experience which promotes self-reliance, healthy decision making, and adventure!

No pre-registration is necessary. Simply come by the first Saturday of the month and sign up for a climb time. We never know how many people will show up so please know the climb may be busy and there may be a short wait. Bring a beach chair or blanket, maybe some snacks, and hang out with us!

Who: EVERYBODY ages 6 years old and up - it's not just for kids!

When: The first Saturday of every month

Time: Climbs start every half hour from 10:00 am to 1:30.

Where: Pathfinder 1310 22nd Avenue South St. Petersburg, 33705
