Traverse Walls®
A Traverse Wall® is climbed horizontally, not vertically. The wall is 8' or 10' high and comes in sections to allow for any desired length. The fun and challenge of a Traverse Wall® is making it from one side to the other, rather than to the top. Students are never more than a few feet off the floor as they climb horizontally across, the wall. No ropes or harnesses are needed. Traverse Walls® can occupy and optimize a variety of spaces--from gymnasiums to classrooms to hallways. Take a look below at all the different types of Traverse Climbing Walls we offer, including those with interactive and decorative surfaces.
How to choose a Traverse Wall®
Everlast Traverse Walls are horizontal climbing walls designed for climbing programs where participants move across the wall instead of climbing vertically. Wall sections are available in 8-foot or 10-foot heights and can be combined for the length your space requires.
