★★★★★Featured review by Daniel Tran

Visit: July 2024 The gym is huge with 3 levels. They have rope climbing at the top level and bouldering on the other 2 levels, with a gym on the second level. The change rooms have saunas and foot showers which is really nice The setting is interesting and there was a lot of fun problems. Some of the finishes though, seemed really difficult (or I'm just bad), but I prefer harder climbs over easier ones! Went on free climbing day, so it was extremely packed in the gym Highly recommend the gym!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with older kids and teens who can follow gym etiquette and climb independently. The facility has significant ongoing issues with dogs throughout all areas and toddlers in the autobelay zone without adequate supervision — these are real-world conditions to factor in, not edge cases.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Day pass includes shoe rentals and full re-entry — take a break for lunch and return
⏰Avoid free climbing days when the facility becomes extremely crowded
đŸŽŸī¸Autobelay areas can get congested; plan to move between zones if one is overrun
🚗Three levels to explore — rope climbing upstairs, bouldering on lower two floors

“Huge multi-level facility that includes bouldering, top rope, and even a small little fitness/gym area. For $40 you can have an entire day of climbing, leave to get some food and drinks, and then come back to continue climbing with their day pass and shoe rentals. Their staff was extremely nice and with the two floors of bouldering fun, I could easily stay there all day. Def recommend as I am pretty new to climbing and still felt very comfortable and welcomed!”
