The Canyon Ranch Spa at the Venetian has an indoor rock climbing wall, which is a great place for beginners to give climbing a try. The rock wall is about 40 feet high and has a couple of routes, all of which are pretty basic.

But with the price of admission, you get access to the fitness center facilities for a day. All equipment is provided with the lesson.
