Great place! Easy access, open spaces with enough little tucked away spots to give you a bit of space even when its crowded. You can easily flow between high walls and lower areas for bouldering and you can climb alone or with buddies. Everyone here is always friendly and they are great at explaining for beginners to make getting started simple. Shoes and gear are available to rent or you can bring your own. Plenty of easy access shelving to store shoes and bags while you climb and they also offer lockers for more secure storage. Great place to hang for a few hours for fun or exercise and age friendly for kids and adults. Will definitely be back!
Had a great time rock climbing with my fiancé. It had been a long time since we last climbed but Kevin did a great job with the intro tutorial. Also this place had a little bit of everything for climbers. Would recommend anyone to give it a try!
great first time! introduced our 3 year old to climbing. staff was super patient getting her into her harness & explaining the different climbing options if it's your first time...save time by registering online. there is a fairly lengthy disclaimer to read and initial.
First time, climbing and I love how big this place is and I love the auto belayers that make it easier to learn especially when you’re climbing alone ! Bought some chalk for 1.50 which was cool 30 (harness and rental shoes) 22 (if you have both)
Today I visited the place and had a fantastic experience. The facility was large and clean, with plenty of routes for all skill levels. They teach beginners everything and answer all your questions. the price was very reasonable, making it accessible for frequent visits. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in climbing; it's fun for children, and private coaches are available. It's a great place to have fun and get a good workout.
