“Our family enjoyed our bouldering experience in the gym with Louis so much, we booked a half-day, outdoor climbing adventure out of Queenstown. Loz showed us a safe, fun, and amazing afternoon on the crags, and afterwards we enjoyed a dip in refreshing Lake Wakatipu! We highly recommend checking out Basecamp as each person we met was more than attentive to our kids' needs.”

“Very nice community. 39$ entry when using chalk and rental boots. Grading is in colours and all in all the roots are fun and cool.”
