SERVING OUR COMMUNITY
SINCE 1994
The Guelph Grotto was founded on the idea that everyone can climb. We are a family run, community oriented gym, and we strive to create an accessible and inclusive space where everyone can get on the wall.
​
A lot has changed since our gym was first opened by Dave Perozzo back in 1994, but our commitment to climbers of all abilities remains constant. We offer a variety of programs and classes for climbers of all ages to explore climbing, develop their strength and technique, and set and achieve personal goals.
“We strive to create a positive environment where everyone can have fun and crush climbs! We have an amazing community of climbers that have shaped the Grotto into the supportive and welcoming gym we love."
– Dave Perozzo, Owner
