The Red Barn is a recreational facility at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Located on the west end of the RIT campus, the large, red-painted barn is the site of the university's Interactive Adventures program^[1]. It is perhaps best known for its rock climbing and bouldering facilities.

[edit] Rock climbing

The Red Barn's 5,000 square feet (460 m²) of climbing surface^[2] is spread across a toprope wall and a top-out boulder on the first floor, and three bouldering caves in the basement. The walls' holds are regularly rearranged to create new problems.

Though the Red Barn is an RIT-owned facility, its climbing facilities are open to the public, with memberships and day passes offered at a discount to RIT students. Climbing shoes are also available for rent.
