Great climbing gym with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Prices are fair. Membership benefits are great! A good balance of all skill levels and bouldering and climbing (top-rope or lead). Rotation is well timed to keep the routes interesting and fun.

Had such a good time yesterday as it was my first time there that I bought a 10 visit punch pass. The staff was so awesome, shout out to the young lady that gave me my facility tour she was so pleasant and welcoming. 10/10 for service and as I’m new to climbing indoors and I can’t wait to go back and try the bouldering and different marked routes. For reference I climbed for about 3 hours too.

Great gym! Took my partner climbing for the first time. Had lots of VB and V1 routes. The fella who gave us our tour was very detailed and friendly! Will definitely return when back in Roanoke!

My children and I really enjoy climbing here. Truly the best rock gym I have found in all the many places I’ve lived! I unfortunately can not afford to go more than once a month for all three of us. I think more people could be able to join if it wasn’t as pricey as it is. With that being said, I’ve also noticed for some reason all things relating to taking classes or gaining memberships in Roanoke are charged almost double what is in lots of other cities. Considering the minimum wage pay here is lower than most cities, I’m not sure why places charge so much to have a good time. I definitely encourage anyone who’s interested to check them out because they have a lot to offer here! It’s a really fun time and is also very good for your health. They have a lot of great classes and deals you can jump in on. ✌🏻
