Great experience here as a new climber (V0-V2) The bouldering routes are thoughtfully set and help beginners practice a range of techniques.

I came here while visiting NYC and was thrilled that they offer free passes for those who work in the industry. The staff were super nice and I enjoyed chatting with other climbers. It was thoroughly sandbagged but as a routesetter I didn’t really mind. The boulders were interesting and I left with some fun ideas to set in the future. Thanks for supporting fellow industry workers. 🤍

My friends and I decided to try bouldering for the first time at Brooklyn Boulders. For first-time climbers, this was an entertaining and exciting adventure! Upon entry, you will be checked in with the staff. I highly recommend filling out the waiver form online, but you can fill it out there too. If you plan on doing the high rock-climbing, you have to rent the harness. While chalk is optional, I highly recommend renting a bag too. It does help! In the front and middle of the building, you will see several tall rock-climbing areas. You can get a staff to help assist your pulley. You can even attend classes, which I plan on doing when I come back. The other areas are for bouldering. If you have any questions, feel free to ask the staff. Otherwise, start at the beginner level of V0 and work your way up. Basically, your hands start at the tape by the holds near the bottom and you finish the climb by having both hands touch the uppermost hold where the tape is. Not only can you do bouldering and climbing, but there is a small gym in the basement for you to workout and do yoga! With a fancy hydration station and multiple lockers throughout the building, this was the perfect place for first-timers like my friends and I. Just a side note, please be respectful to each other and try not to block anyone's way or idle on the mats! Other than that, I hope you have as much fun as my friends and I. Your hands will get calloused and may be sore for a few days, so fair warning for all.

Brooklyn Boulders Queensbridge is a fantastic rock climbing gym that’s well worth checking out, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced climber. The space is super clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully laid out. There’s a great mix of bouldering problems and climbing routes with varying levels of difficulty, so you can really challenge yourself or take it easy depending on your mood. The vibe is friendly and welcoming, and the staff are always around to help out or offer tips if you’re new to climbing. It’s a great place to train, hang out, or just get a good workout in a unique and fun way. There’s also space for stretching, strength training, and a few quieter areas if you just want to chill between climbs. Overall, it’s a clean, spacious, and motivating environment. Definitely a go-to spot if you’re in Queens and looking for a solid climbing gym.
