G1 Climbing + Fitness

G1 is hands down one of the best climbing gyms I’ve ever visited! I live in Boulder less than 5 mins walk of 2 climbing gyms but I would rather drive to G1. The cleanliness of this facility is impeccable—every surface, from the climbing walls to the fitness areas, is spotless. It’s so refreshing to see a gym that prioritizes cleanliness at this level, which makes the entire experience even more enjoyable. The indoor air quality is fantastic, even during peak hours. They must have an amazing ventilation system because you never feel that typical gym “stale air” or “chalky” vibe. The route setting is top notch! The variety and creativity in the routes keep me engaged and challenged every time I visit. Whether you’re a beginner looking for fun, approachable climbs or a seasoned climber chasing your next project, there’s something for everyone. It’s also cool to see many professional elite athletes training on their 5.13/5.14 routes. Overall, G1’s attention to detail in every aspect, from cleanliness and air quality to the quality of the climbs, makes it a must-visit for climbers and fitness enthusiasts alike. Highly recommend!

They have some of the best routesetting in the country. There are strong climbers at this gym, especially the youth. The head setter has well over a decade of experience, and has a great team. The boulders were most impressive to me, as every style was represented. Coordination dynos and bicycle beta were artfully created. Their use of volumes was above average. It was clear whoever set and foreran the V8's, 9's, and 10's were more than capable to send. The higher grades got progressively more technical without estranging smaller or non-superhuman climbers. Both boulders and roped routes seemed projectable if they were not flashable. The climbs were interesting enough for me to want to return to finish them. The addicting nature of the good quality setting is what I loved most about this gym. The facility is quite bougie. The staff and their friends make a nice atmosphere. There is a physical therapy clinic inside the gym. There is a very nice weight room with everything climbers would need. They have rings and good pull up bars. Upstairs there is a proper training area with two training boards, and a free hanging properly pitched campus boards and every hang board attachment you could want. There are yoga mats and all the calisthenics accoutrement. There are plenty of top quality brushes in the bouldering area. The bouldering mats are a little hard for my liking. I was having trouble committing at the top of the wall because the fall was quite hard, but not unsafe. The bouldering uses a V scale, and is pretty consistent. Overall the grading at this gym seems a bit soft to outdoors, and consistent with other gyms. The lead wall is truly epic, there is overhang represented up to "5.14d" which I'm not sure I can believe, but hard climbs are so hard to find, anything over 12d is greatly appreciated. The gym walls have a lot of friction. They have an increble selection of some of the newest holds on the market, many of which I have never seen before. The only negative thing about this gym was they have harsh financial rules. A day pass is $25, they offer no first time discounts or free day passes. There is an initiation fee, which is a pretty outdated concept at this point. Month to month members do not get day passes, and have other restricted benefits which seems super weird. There is not a trial membership. The bathrooms are always perfectly clean, however, the paper towels were often out and the shower curtain was a bit cheap. Other than that the accomodations were too notch. Generally the rates are high, however the facility is well equiped and very beautiful, the quality of the setting is outstanding, so there is a high value represented. One of the best gyms in America.

I switched over to G1 ~6 months ago, and I love it here! Their community nights are awesome, the route setting (boulders and roped/lead routes) are always fun and introducing new movement. The Yoga classes led by Morgan are always full of fun, new challenges (the food kind), and provide exactly what I look for in a yoga class.

Excellent environment and great staff! They always have fun events like climbing in the dark, little competitions and celebrating different national/international days like International Waffles Day. Yes, you heard that right, WAFFLES! I highly recommend this place for great climbs, including, bouldering, top rope, lead, and they have a sprint wall too. They also have some fitness and yoga classes to if that interests you!

Absolutely stellar experience with G1 Climbing and Fitness! Not only do they provide top-notch facilities and expert guidance for climbers of all levels, but their unwavering support for our nonprofit organization, Veterans Exploration Therapy, truly sets them apart. The team at G1 goes above and beyond to empower and uplift their community. Their commitment to giving back to those who have served is truly commendable. Thank you, G1, and Jeff for your outstanding dedication to both climbing excellence and community service!"
