Welcoming staff, affordable prices, and a great set up. My teens loved it and we will definitely be back. The auto belay option is super easy and meant my son could attack the same wall for an hour and no one had to stand there holding rope for him. :-)

One of my absolute favorite PRG locations because of the community. Kirsten has done a phenomenal job boosting an inclusive community with lots of stoke. The women’s climb is a must attend. I’ve found some of my favorite people through this gym, and adore the desk staff. Great kids. Thanks for being a staple of our local community :)

Visiting from out of state, I'm a beginner and these climbs were definitely challenging but not too crazy. Staff were friendly and helpful and the environment was very welcoming. Would definitely go again!

Nice rock wall climbing gym. Staff is fairly friendly. However it did take over 45 minutes to check us in/get us geared up(I went with my 4 children).

We just had our daughters 7th bday party here. It was a total hit! A lot of her friends never climbed and in the 1.5 hrs they climbed you watched each child’s confidence grow as they challenged themselves and finished their climbs with pride. I bet a lot of the kids will pursue climbing more in the future! We live closer to the Oaks location but for a kids party Malvern is the best. The clear climb board where you can climb facing a friend was a favorite and then so many fun challenging colorful kid rock walls that the kids loved. The girls who helped run the party were great! #1 we felt safe at all times. #2 I could enjoy the party instead of serve each child & parent attending our party #3 during the climbs these girls were very encouraging and motivating for the kids. Please tip the party staff ppl well- they definitely deserve it! Do not hesitate to have your kids bday party here! It may be a short 1 hr and 45 min party but it is full of fun and memories… and I think a real confidence builder for the kids. The only negative experience was the partygoers either passed the place or found it hard to locate. The signage our front needs upgraded for sure. Seems Google maps tells you to turn too late. So many of our guests were a little late for the already short party.
