Reach new heights on Michigan’s Tallest Outdoor Climbing Tower!

Ready for 60-ft of pure adrenaline?!

Whether you’re an experienced rock climber or just looking for a new adventure, come scale our rock climbing tower!

Don’t forget those two commands that you have to tell your staff person before you climb:

On Belay! Climbing!

Both sides of the climbing tower are available to use for large groups or different groups that are scheduled at the same time. Each group will have 1-2 hours to climb the tower (depending on how many climbers are present).

There are two windows on each side of the tower, so if you feel tired and would like to take a break, you may climb inside a window, rest, and get a quick picture taken!

Challenge by Choice

The Howell Conference & Nature Center operates with a Challenge by Choice philosophy for all activities.  Participants choose their level of challenge; they are never forced into an activity.  And participants know that they have the positive support of the others in their groups, promoting positive risk-taking, self-confidence, leadership, and teamwork.

Safety

Your safety is a top priority at the Howell Conference & Nature Center.  Participants in any adventure activity receive proper instruction and equipment by trained Nature Center staff.  We are accredited by the American Camp Association and operate under safety standards of the Association for Challenge Course Technology.
