From the reviews
After much anticipation, the best climbing gym in town is finally here. Here is what I love. 1. Excellent setting. The routes are challenging, some comp style others flowy. Something for everyone. Nice terrain too. 2.
Finally, a good climbing gym! Routes were challenging yet fulfilling for beginner and amateur climbers. They have routes for climbers at every experience level. Their route-setter deserves a raise! Location was clean & modern, and the staff were both friendly and knowledgeable.
Great new climbing gym in Cville. Great route setters, open inviting atmosphere, places to chill and work, nice gear selection. This is the place to be!
The open, welcoming, beautiful, bright climbing space we’ve needed. Everyone there has been super nice so far, and my kids had an absolute blast too. The auto belays are ideal for kiddos, and the dream is one day we get proper sport climbing in town!
