What's inside
“This gym has some great, tall, top rope walls as well as a sizable bouldering area.”
“They section off some of the easier auto belay climbs for those.”
What climbers say again and again
“The employees are super friendly and the facility is always clean.”
“If your a beginner, like me, just come with the attitude that kids shorter than your knee will surpass you from the start.”
“Massive rock walls, amazingly kind and helpful staff with fun energy, a beautiful Yoga room with Asian Lantern ceiling, great showers and a nice weigh gym.”
“A great deal of thought and technique are used in this sport, so the time passed so quickly.”
“I’ve been here twice now as a rock climbing newbie and the community here is so welcoming and supportive.”
From the reviews
Awesome rock climbing place! Definitely one of the best I've been too! Super friendly and helpful staff, plenty of gear to loan with LOTS of sizes, and A LOT of ways to climb. Filling out the waiver documents on the iPad was convenient, and getting started was a breeze. Definitely looking forward to going back!
My in-laws live in Anchorage so we visit a couple of times a year. Last year around December we found this gym and were blown away by the quality. It is huge and beautiful and so much fun! Isabelle belay certified a few of us and she was super cute and helpful.
Two lessons in and I want more. I can’t decide which was more fun, working on the bouldering walls or belaying. A great deal of thought and technique are used in this sport, so the time passed so quickly.
Having the birthday party here for my daughter is the best decision I’ve ever made. Helpful staff, online forms making life easier for sign up and invitation. More than half of the party is first timer and already having fun! We’re making plans for coming here again for the next party!
Birthday parties at Alaska Rock Gym
Alaska Rock Gym hosts birthday parties — confirmed on their own site. Climbing parties come with staff who handle the harnesses and belaying, so parents can mostly watch. One thing that's different here: every guest needs a signed waiver — send the gym's waiver link to the other parents when you send invites, or check-in day gets slow. Packages, party rooms, and pricing change often, so check the current options and book ahead — weekend slots go fast at popular gyms.
