PEABODY ICE & MIXED CLIMBING
Peabody Ice Climbing is an ice & mixed climbing venue located in Fenton, Michigan on a retired apple orchard. Our venue has become a place for seasoned ice climbers to train for the mountains, and also provides an ideal introduction for beginners in a controlled environment by experienced and certified instructors.
ICE CLIMBING
Two towers, 45ft and 72ft tall, are iced over in the winter to offer a place for experienced ice climbers to train and to provide a great introduction for people interested in the sport.
MIXED CLIMBING/Drytooling
We have the only permanent mixed climbing/dry tooling training facility in the United States. Our mixed climbing routes are ideal for both winter and off-season training, for climbing competitions, and for learning new ways to use your axes and crampons.
the VENUE
In addition to the two ice towers and the mixed walls, our venue has a heated club house where you can rent climbing gear. There are lodging options in the area varying from hotels to camping as well as hiking and cross country/downhill skiing along with destination quality doing options.
