Central Rock Gym is a world class indoor rock climbing and fitness facility. Easily accessible via train and/or bus, this location offers bouldering, auto belays, and fitness! One key difference that I notice is the difficulty of bouldering. Unlike other indoor climbing gyms, these locations have bouldering difficulties ranging from V0 to V11, much higher than V9 of most other gyms. However, since there are more levels, the difficulties of each level are also slightly easier than those of other gyms too. Meaning, a V2 at Central Rock Gym is slightly easier than a V2 at another indoor climbing gym. To me, this is an ideal starting point for anyone starting to bouldering. The V0 and V1 helps build confidence for beginners and the slow incline in difficulty boosts confidence for more advanced bouldering climbers! While you still need to rent bouldering shoes, you do not need to rent chalk. If you have, you can bring your own, but this facility provides you with chalk! They also have lockers for you to store your bags and changing rooms for you to change your clothes. Another great thing is the care this facility provides. Not only are the areas clearly marked and separated, but everyone is pretty much safely away from the fall zone. Not only that, but they also provide band-aids for the minor cuts, scrapes, and injuries you may incur during your visit. I definitely look forward to coming back here. Hopefully, I can get to a higher difficulty level!

Love this place. Had a blast with the kids. They got to do some climbing and so did I. I got to the top of a few of the tall climbs (which I was not expecting to be able to do) with some coaching from the great staff. They were so helpful and reassuring. I can’t wait to go back and try some more of the bouldering. Everything was top notch and clean. I don’t know what my expectations were, but they were def exceeded.

Loved it!!! Great boulders, great walls, and great people! The setting was superb and had a ton of variety with lots and lots of routes. Despite not being the biggest gym, the space was used perfectly and had so many different wall angles. Not only that, but there was great density of holds and routes which made the gym feel twice as big. Plenty of fun routes for beginners, some tricky slabs for the intermediate, and maxed out with a powerful v10 and a few v9s. Even had a tension board, dope campus board, and some chill sport routes. Everyone was super friendly, gave great beta, and I even managed to get a free sticker from the staff! Great place to visit, can’t wait to come back 🥳

Day pass (non-member) Adult: $33 plus $8 gear and shoes Kid: $25 gear and shoes included One of the very few places offering climbing for kids under 5. The are 3 routes for auto belay and 10 for staff/partner belay. For beginners there are staff belay classes for kids on weekends. The website is informative and updated regularly. The equipment and restrooms are spotless. The staff constantly clean and check out the environment. The staff was so friendly that you would feel like chatting with your friends. Highly recommend this place! Avoid the peak hours to enjoy the most of it.

Ich habe dort ein paar Mal geklettert, während ich in NYC war. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Definitiv eine schöne Atmosphäre mit einer guten Mischung von Boulderern aller Leistungsstufen. Die Anlage ist großartig, mit vielen netten Problemen – ebenfalls für alle Levels. Die Einrichtung ist schön und sauber, was offenbar Teil der CRG-Marke ist. Ich habe mich wirklich gut amüsiert.
