Awesome spot, only reason it's 4 instead of 5 is that it's usually so packed that it can be hard to get on the walls during busy hours, and they aren't always the best as setting new routes often enough. Have definitely been times where the open routes are the ones that have been up for over a month. Besides that though it's a great place to climb and work out, a couple auto belays, small regular gym section with some equipment and weights too, good clean locker rooms and bathrooms and a dry sauna which is a great perk. Been a member for a while now and plan on continuing to be.
We did top rope, it was so fun here! 19$/day day pass for students. Staff were great nice and helpful. We came early afternoon and it was nice and quiet, a bit later some climbing teams came in but because the gym was so spacious we had plenty of space to do other climbs. They also had little flowers made of climbing holds it was so cute ;;
Went here with my siblings as a first time climber. Super great experience! Staff was really friendly and helpful in guiding us through our first time. Orientation was super helpful and the person who walked us through it was very informative and answered every question I had. It’s a great atmosphere here that feels welcoming to beginners and more advanced climbers alike. I will definitely be visiting again and recommending this place to anyone remotely interested in rock climbing/bouldering!
This place was awesome! The staff was really sweet and charming, climbing was good, and despite the fact there were a lot of people there, I didn't feel like I couldn't get on anything or there were significant slowdowns. Really good climbing gym culture. Be aware that you need to pass an auto belay quiz to climb, or take a belaying test. You can't test the day of unless you come hot and ready, but there's also plenty of bouldering upstairs you can do if you are a first-timer and don't remember the belaying steps.
This is a great climbing gym in the city. Finding parking can feel very taxing however once you do, you will be all set for some great fun. It’s a clean gym with many challenges available. The walls do become very packed with people, you will find yourself waiting on the next route from time to time. With that said it’s still definitely worth the visit. There is a large area upstairs for bouldering and slack line walking which is a lot of fun. Great vibe here.
