From the reviews

My first time rock climbing as an adult and this place is GREAT! The safety orientation was kind, fast, and educational. Everyone is kind and non judge-mental of different experience levels as well. I felt comfortable and empowered to explore climbing and will definitely be back.

★★★★★ — Bunny, Feb 2022

We had a wonderful time today taking kids to climb (8 and 5 year-old.) The staff was attentive and helpful to our pack of newbies! The facility felt very safe with masks encouraged for anyone not currently climbing. Well spaced with lots of climbing and bouldering options. We can't wait to go back!

★★★★★ — Erin, Nov 2020

The best climbing community in Nashville. Come join me for a bouldering session or hop on the ropes Tuesday and Thursday evenings! CragFit, Yoga, are included in memberships and you can find PT and other workout classes on location. Moonboard found here along with hangboards and weights / rowing machines.

★★★★★ — Seth, Jul 2021

Very friendly staff, climbs for all levels, space is big and clean. Didn’t feel any of the passive aggressive vibes I get whenever I go to climbing gyms in New York City. Will definitely come back next time I’m in Nashville.
