Springs Climbing Center

I'm very impressed with this gym. It's a good mix of modern and traditional bouldering. There were many different styles of problems and styles of holds. The walls, volumes, and holds have course texture. There's a lot of different equipment for training and the building has history. There's a signed Chris Sharma poster on the wall. There is a really cool comp wall with three grades, and even the easy grade had excellent setting. Generally the setting in the gym was gratifying. The problems flow nicely and could be projected in a session at your grade level. The other folks in the gym are super friendly, from beginners to advanced, but mainly a cool crowd. The staff was kicking around a soccer ball and there was a cute dog. There is good music and good atmosphere. I've been to about 50 climbing gyms and this is easily in my top 5. Will definitely go out of my way for this gym in the future. When I bought a day pass, A+ for not asking if I needed rental gear (can't believe I have to say this). Cheers.

I wanted my ten year old grandson to experience rock climbing and I chose Springs Climbing Center because they have a great deal for a private lesson package. The 1 hour private lesson included the cost for the rental of the shoes for that visit and a day pass to come another day for my grandson to try out his new skills. The instructor was amazing. She was friendly, patient and knowledgeable. I was extremely impressed! I plan on taking my grandson back when he comes to visit again.

The gym is very well maintained. It is extremely affordable too. There is a few "top ropes" but they're rather short. This gym is basically bouldering. And it's the best in the city at that. I have seen climbs around v11 regularly and I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple harder than that. And there's enough underhangs and slabs to keep you pushing yourself.

Best bouldering gym! The routes are phenomenal. SCC is an inclusive gym that takes shorter climbers into consideration and sets routes that are achievable for climbers of all heights. There are also a small number of auto-belay climbs (6) however, it's clear to see that bouldering is their specialty. Only downside is that the gym lacks proper ventilation and it occasionally smells like feet in there in addition to a fine layer of chalk covering nearly every surface.

I love this place. The pricing is great (pretty low starting price + many discounts), and the facility is fantastic (mostly bouldering, though a bit of toprope). All the holds are high quality, the homemade walls are great, and the routes are creative and bountiful. The community is extremely encouraging and supportive - no matter the skill level of the climber, or whether they frequent the gym or not, you'll always see people cheering eachother on. Plenty of routes for beginners and advanced climbers alike - mostly V1's through V10's though I've seen a few V11-13's. The employees set a new section of the gym every week, so the routes are very fresh and you definitely won't get bored if you climb here a lot. The owners of the business climb at the gym all the time (it seems like that's all they do) and they're all extremely chill (which is probably why the place as a whole is as well). I honestly couldn't recommend this place enough.

Not the cleanest gym. Parking is a little limited. Most hold are dirty or very very greasy, other gyms in the area are much cleaner and free of chalk. They have a lot of modern training equipment however. The walls are only auto belay, and the routes on the wall are okay, when I asked the guy at the front about the grading he admitted he didn’t know what was on the walls at that time or their grading. The walls are okay, bouldering was nice, lots of routes.
