We have been coming here for a year and a half and Nick, Alan, and Nikke have been such a delight. They are so helpful have answered any rock climbing questions when we first started out. I love this place, back in 2019 I used to come with my friend back when he was a manager and I would only climb once a month but I’m so glad that I’m now a member.

An incredible spot for climbers of all abilities! My best friend and I took the lead climb and belay course with Jules, who was unbelievably patient, knowledgeable, and supportive. Additionally, we received top rope belay instruction from Jimmy, who was incredibly friendly and helpful. He even remembered us on subsequent visits and recommended fun climbs at our appropriate levels of difficulty. The staff truly elevate this environment, which contains lots of climbs for both boulderers and sport climbers (top rope and lead). I highly recommend visiting!

My kid and I are new to climbing and came to check it out after a positive climbing experience in scouts. Spent three hours that felt like 30 minutes it was so much fun. The staff were all very friendly, helpful, and patient with us as new people who didn't have a clue. We signed up for member ship the same day and took a belaying class the next visit. Josh was awesome, friendly, very knowledgeable, supportive, and not berating at all. He had us going in no time after a thorough teaching session, spent time with us for a few practice climbs, then let us explore alone and checked in on us. I'm sure most/all the staff is great, but request Josh if available and you're set. As of this posting, their harnesses are new and high quality. There is ample bouldering space, and many, many routes of various levels for top rope and lead climbing. Not many options for auto-belay though, so joining and getting belay-certified is a must. They offer classes, a yoga/stretch area, some gym equipment, and provide all the gear if you don't have any (like us). I expect these kinds of large gyms are going to spread quickly. I'm already all-in.

If you're looking for a great spot to go rock climbing, Stone Summit Climbing Atlanta is the place for you. They have a small bouldering section because there is a dedicated bouldering gym nearby, but the staff is friendly and they offer tours for first timers. There are tons of top rope and auto belay options, as well as a small gym upstairs for weight lifting and cardio. Overall, it's a great place to get your climb on!

Reasonably large climbing gym in the greater Atlanta area. They are a chain with 4 locations in and around the city. This location has both rope climbing and bouldering so it’s a plus. The staff were super friendly and accommodating There are a ton of beginner routes and plenty of autobelays for that area. I see a lot of kids having fun. In general the grades are on the softer side but that’s not to take away from the creative route setting. They have something for everyone. They also have an annex parking which is slightly down the hill from the building and can fit plenty of cars and vans.
