From the reviews
Amazing rock climbing gym with top rode, lead, and bouldering facilities. They also have a complete workout gym. Staff are very friendly and nice, will teach you belaying happily if you ask. Prices are decent as well and you can stay for the whole day!
I have a 5 year old that has a lot of energy but it's totally patient eager to try anything new so when we saw this was local, we went online to see what and how can we get started.
I’ve been coming to Diablo rock gym for years and it has always been the best environment! I’ve honestly met a lot of my closest friends here, and a lot of friendly faces. It’s a super convenient location and has a variety of options to get into climbing for the first time, or for seasoned pros.
This is my home gym and will always be my home gym. I’ve loved this place for the past 10 years of my life. Regardless of my issues with Touchstone and my dissatisfaction with their cooperation with the Touchstone Union Workers I have still come to this gym due to the wonderful staff who have worked there for years.
