The Climbing Wall

The FCCJ climbing wall stands out like a beacon and will leave a lasting impression on all those who endeavor to ascend to its summit.

The climbing wall brings the excitement and benefits of rock climbing in a beautiful outdoor setting. Climbing the wall stimulates camaraderie, builds trust, enhances problem-solving skills and increases self-esteem among all who participate.

Climbing wall programs come complete with trained facilitators and all of the necessary equipment such as harnesses, ropes and climbing hardware.

Outdoor Education Center

It is not far away, but it’s a long way from home. Tucked quietly into the forest of rural, northeast Florida is an educational center so removed from tradition, you might forget that you’re actually learning. FCCJ’s Nassau Outdoor Education Center is located just 20 miles north of downtown Jacksonville but light-years away from the stress of the urban environment. Under a full canopy of native flora, the Center offers seven educational programs: the low ropes course, the climbing wall, team building, corporate and organizational training, wilderness training/adventures, environmental education and college credit outdoor adventure courses. All of our programs are custom designed for the purpose of building solid cohesive teams.

When you arrive, you'll immediately realize that even though you haven’t driven far, you’re a long way from the noise, pressures, pace and stress of the city. We recommend that you fill your lungs with fresh air, fill your ears with the sounds of nature and open your mind to a new learning environment for group development and personal growth.
