From the reviews
Great bouldering and rope climbing facility. Everything is clean. Service is friendly. The only reason its missing a star is because $25 for a session is bit too high but all in all great experience.
Been coming for three weeks and it's a great gym. Nice bouldering and belay sections. Very accessable for beginners and experienced alike. The manager is very nice, and helpful to those just starting out. Would recommend for all interested to try it out.
The facility is clean and well maintained. The staff could not be nicer and more helpful. I’ve taken my 5 year old granddaughter several times and am never disappointed. I highly recommend!!!
Super cool place. Together with daughter and granddaughter, we had a blast. Yakima, please support this terrific new recreational opportunity in our community!
Birthday parties at High Steppe Climbing Center
High Steppe Climbing Center hosts birthday parties, going by their listing and visitor reviews. 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.
