What's inside
From the reviews
Small bouldering gym with a variety of problems in a range of levels. Good for people who are getting into climbing or at the intermediate level. There’s a moonboard too
Great sense of community. Interesting routes. The size is limiting but you can tell us they had more room they would be a top notch gym. They work well with the space they're provided and we hope to see it expand.
Fun gym, I just hope they change their routes a tad bit more than once every 2-3 months.
Excellent climbing gym, the people here are very friendly. Good set of climbing grades too, serving everyone from a total beginner to an expert.
