Central Rock Gym

Excellent bouldering gym for those in downtown Rochester. Clean walls and clean holds, which I'm a stickler for. What stood out for me was that next to The grade for each climb, the setters would show a pie chart for how people rated the difficulty of that climb during an initial voting period. -1 star only because some of the downclimb holds had been polished to a high shine and are in need of replacement. Ditto for a 4-sided pyramid volume that had been reduced to a dangerously patchy dual-texture hold!

Great intro gym for people feeling out the sport! Checked it out recently and can say it was a VERY clean facility. Routes are definitely graded a bit higher than they actually are, which can inspire people new to the game. For safety sake, DO NOT apply skill level here to outdoor climbs as it would be very dangerous. On average deduct about two levels from what they rate off applying in real world situations. (5.10=5.8). All in all, great for casual climbers and beginners!!!

The climbing gym's routes are very interesting and diverse. We came to this climbing gym from Canada and were able to do a lead test without an appointment. The staff's attitude and efficiency were excellent. As a chain climbing gym, this is my favorite one in the U.S.

Great place to get a Rock climbing workout! Belay staff was amazing, our first time but we still had so much fun!

Best climbing gym in the area. Boulders and ropes are always very fun and everybody is super friendly and helpful, if you're a beginner there is always somebody who will help you out. Really nice weight room as well with any equipment you need.
