From the reviews
If you love bouldering then this is the gym for you! I was told by all my climbing friends over the years that this was one of the must visit gyms and they were not kidding! It’s amazing. It’s modern, clean and spacious for a city gym!

Finally got a chance to stop by Vital and climb! Such a great experience overall. The facility is so spacious and kept really clean. The staff was helpful and made us feel super welcomed. And of course there was the rooftop with the incredible views and fire pit. Such a dope space. Highly recommend it!
Vital climbing gym’s roof climb is very fun! On sunny days the view of the city and fresh air makes this a top climbing spot for me. Indoor climbing, sauna / shower, and classes give a great full experience. Day pass for $35 plus a fee if you’d like to get shoes and chalk.
