The gym is a great place for kids to gett rock climbing experience. My daughter has been going to their kid classes for almost a year and she loves them! The instructors are very knowledgable and friendly and the gym itself is a world class rock climbing facility.

Boulders climbing gym a climbing community for young and old and even the frightened. A facility with a bolstering 13000 square feet and the reputation to back it up. As one of two acmg accredited gyms(internationally recognized accreditation) on the south island the courses are taught by actual climbing instructors and not someone with in house training. The front desk is staffed by the most wonderful and friendly staff i have ever met.
Each route is meticulously set to ensure everyone can participate. They even made a new set of difficulties for those new to the sport or very young (kbc). The

Friendly, helpful staff run this good sized gym.
The gym is broken up into 3 areas. The first area is the newest area: an awesome, large sport climbing area (with massive doors that are the full height of the wall that are opened on sunny days). The second area is a two story bouldering room with a cave. The third area, located at the back of the facility, is a dedicated top rope room.

Had a blast yesterday with the power to be group! I'm terrified of heights but found that there were easy to climb routes for us newbies. The first one I made it to the top and was able to ring the bell was so amazing! It gave me the confidence to try the next level up and even climb in the big room. Thanks again!

Had a fabulous experience. This was a 69th birthday gift to myself. Testing my strength and abilities to face my fears. It worked I loved it. Staff was great both at front desk and during the climb. Super instructions and explanations. Great encouragement as I started to loose my drive. Kept me focused on my goal to reach the top. I did it I climb the big wall. Wooohooo I will be back an long before the next birthday.
