Nevada Climbing Centers

Me & my friends have never done rock climbing before but have always wanted to. We finally did & it was an awesome experience! The lady at the desk was very corteous & helpful to us, beginners. At first, the climbing was very intimidating since I don’t do very well with heights. I didn’t want to let go at first to go down but it all came down to trusting my friends with my life as I go down. Lol. True enough, constantly climbing & going down desensitize you, so that took off most of the fear in the process. We’ll definitely be back! It’s such a good work-​out & it’s so much fun!

We went here for our first time indoor climbing. The instructor was nice and courteous to us. She showed us the basics and proper climbing techniques with safety precautions. The only thing that sort of bothered us was the temperature. It was freezing, even with our sweaters on. But other than that, our experience there was fun.

My kids and I have been here a few times in the summer so they could climb and not melt. My oldest son informed me that he wanted to have his birthday party here and I immediately went to the website to see if they even do that. They do and it was totally affordable. I paid $ 50 to reserve the room for 2 hours and $ 12 per climber (compared to $ 30 per climber at other climbing places). We brought in our own food and decorations, the room was clean, and we fit all 30ish people in there to cut the cake. It’s not ideal for getting everyone to sit down at once, but, we were there to climb so we didn’t care. All of the kids had fun, whenever myself or another adult had a question, the staff took care of us right away, and all of the kids/​adults were fitted properly into equipment. We had a wide age range of kids attending and there was something for the beginners and the daredevils. My husband and I were really happy with everything, and my now 8-​year-​old and his friends had a blast.

Relaxing environment, passionate staff and a great place to spend the week nights. What’s better? All around great gym for both beginners and experts alike

I visited the place hoping to make a reservation for my son’s birthday party and wanted to see if the place would accommodate 50+ guests like I was told when I called. I was impressed walking in but that was it. I couldn’t find anybody to help me and it wasn’t packed with people at all… maybe 2 or 3 climbers so, I decided to walk myself around the place and gave myself a tour. I think I found the party room and if it was the party room, I was NOT impressed at all. I finally find someone at the front counter and expressed to her my interest in booking a party. She was NO help at all and definitely looked like she was NOT interested or hated her job. She just pointed and said towards the back is the party room. Yeah, my son and I sorta stood there looking like idiots. Uh… ok…my son and I just walked straight out. Thank goodness I came instead of booking over the phone wasting a nonrefundable $ 50.00.

I started going here a couple years ago but ended up quitting my membership when the half-​finished bouldering area showed no progress after 4 months. Flash forward a few years and the freestanding boulder is done. There’s still a blank wall on the structure, and I thought they would’ve built it higher or at least made it a top-​out boulder, but oh well. It beats the hell out of bouldering on the roped walls. I go to NCC because it is an extremely mellow place. It’s like climbing in your buddy’s garage. The owners and other climbers are super friendly and helpful. The problems are interesting with a wide range of ratings. The slackline provides some downtime hi jinx when forearms are dead. Evenings when the dogs are roaming the gym take some getting used to (I would never in good conscience allow my dogs to comfortably hang out on a crash pad – seems like training them to be in an unsafe spot where they could be hurt or potentially hurt the climbers on a jump or possible fall), but they are really friendly and definitely add to the chill vibe. I’m sure it’s not an issue; it’s just something that I’ve seen a few times and never really felt comfortable with. But don’t let that dissuade you from checking them out. I think beginners would love this place because of the mellow, non-​elitist mood NCC exudes. And experienced climbers will find enough to keep them entertained and challenged until we can start going outside again. Overall, this place is just right if you’re into pulling in a relaxed, no-​pressure zone.
**Construction and closures on Patrick and McCleod makes this place harder to find than it used to be, so be wary.

I’ve been going to Nevada Climbing Centers for about 7 months now. The atmosphere is very mellow and the climbing/​bouldering community is great. The staff is great and always willing to help make you a better climber. They are always willing to share information with you and they are always very friendly and enthusiastic. I love bouldering and this is a great place to go.

Great place for kids. We were looking for a indoor rock climbing facility for our kids and this place takes it. Instructor Ian, he was very professional and very knowledgeable when it came to showing us on how to properly use the equipment. Ian also took his time to explain to us on safety as well. We’ll be there all through summer!

Clean & friendly. Love coming here to boulder. Everyone that I’ve met while climbing has always been super kind and supportive — no matter what level of experience you are. Everyone is just happy to be there. I also can’t get enough of the dogs that are here sometimes.
My only negative is that the bouldering area is not complete. The back side is pretty minimal and one side has absolutely nothing on it. That really limits where you can climb when it gets busy (ie ladies night). It also limits the amount of problems you can do when you’re at a certain level.

Took my daughter to this place. Awesome place with a huge amount of space and different walls to climb. Lisa was fantastic, she walked us through all we needed to know and helped out my daughter for a few minutes making her feel more comfortable.

This place rules. The new owners are extremely nice, and always seem to be setting some killer routes! The atmosphere is great and very chill. I took time to try there new massage room with one of the massage therapists, it was well worth it, one of the best massages I’ve ever had! I would recommend this place to everyone! I’ve been to the other gyms in town, this one blows the others out of the water!

The staff is always nice and the facility is always clean. I always have a great time bringing friends here especially the first timers. The best place to go indoor climbing on the south east side of town.

Nice facilities and a nice staff. There are tons of walls, angles, routes, lots of overhangs, good bouldering, and kid-​friendly walls. A great place to spend the afternoon.

In comparison to the two other climbing gyms in town (R2C2 and The Refuge)
Pros:
*TONS of routes with plenty of ropes (over 25) so there is always a place to climb even when they’re slammed on Wednesdays
*all ropes have preset gri-​gris so anyone can climb with any experience level (although you will see people who even make a gri gri dangerous)
*rope climb
*silk classes
*overhung lead climbing area
*good selection of snacks and drinks
*cheapest day pass (Day pass is $ 14 while RRCC is $ 15 and The Refuge is $ 17. Adult EFT monthly membership is $ 50 — same as RRCC and cheaper than The Refuge’s $ 64)
*2 autobelays so you can climb without a partner
Cons:
*Routes don’t change frequently (or they’ll all change on the same rope so it can take a while to try them). They reset when the gym is slammed.
*the boulder is only half finished — backside has been empty since it opened in early October
*there’s not always someone behind the counter — it can take a while to be served
*big dogs are running around everywhere (I love giant puppies, but if you’re allergic or scared I would definitely say it’s a con)
*it sometimes smells like people are smoking in the gym (and not always cigarettes)
*bathrooms and gym floors are kind of gross
*not enough cubbies and lockers when the gym is busy

Really enjoyed it! My friends and I went last week Wednesday and wanted to do it again so we did. It was a good experience! Everybody from beginners to experts was so down to earth and were all willing to chip in their own information on what works for them.
Also, it’s affordable. It’s really cheap. $ 15 for the rentals (shoes and harness) and the fees included. My friends and I are thinking of actually joining the club soon. It’s a real good workout.

Awesome. Outstanding staff, amazing climbing walls and cheap price. If you like to climb, this is the place. Great workout or a place to take the kids to burn off energy. I’m coming back for sure!

This place is
!! I stop by this gym every time I am in Vegas (which is often) for an awesome workout.
The staff is always so professional and friendly! They really make sure everyone has a safe and fun experience. It is an enjoyable laid back establishment that people of all ages can enjoy. The kids birthday parties look like such a blast! Shoot, I might even have mine here. Totally joking. But seriously…
Lisa and Ian (the new owners) have really built this place up. The new boulder they have been working on looks awesome. I cant wait to get my chalky little paws all over that bad boy!
Anyways, before I get myself too worked up I will finish by saying, this place is awesome! Go give it a shot. You wont be disappointed!

Flexible staff, friendly dogs (haha), love doing laps in the cave and roof, and dig the killer boulder problems.
Would like some of the routes cleaned and tightened up a bit.

I love Nevada Climbing Centers! The staff is so helpful and easy to talk to, plenty of walls to climb, and it’s affordable.
For $ 20, you get to use the facility for however long you want and it includes shoes and harness rental. During my first time, the staff helped me figure out how to put the harness on, use the ropes, and belay my partner. She was even nice enough to watch us our first time up and motivated me to keep going when I panicked ¾ of the way up with my fear of heights.
There’s about 27 places to climb with varying inclines and difficulty. There’s plenty of beginner walls, if you’re a noob like me. If you’re looking at the walls and don’t know what the number mean, 5.5 is usually the easiest and you go up in difficulty from there.
It’s a great place to be active without dealing with the heat! I’ve seen some kids come in to climb, so it’s good for all ages. The environment is pretty chill, they play good music, and let you do your own thang.

Nevada Climbing Center is a solid facility with a great staff and incredible management!
I have been in a few times. Twice to climb, and once with a small group or Arial Silks. I think the owner’s name is Lisa. Regardless, she does a great job of instructing and is accommodating to make semi-​privates happen in affordable, high-​quality ways.
Generally speaking, they tend to have better prices than other facilities in town. This is especially true of private, semi-​private and group activities. The gym is a little rough around the edges, but that is just fine for my liking. They have a wide selection of climbs that are well labeled designed to challenge climbers of all skill levels. They have a bouldering section with an inverted roof-​climb that was under construction when I last visited. Additionally, I was pleased with the quality of instruction and safety of the facility.
Come here if you want to give indoor rock-​climbing a shot.
Come here for private lessons.
Come here for you child’s rock-​climbing themed birthday party… or rent it out for any group for that matter.
Come here for the lowest prices around on intro Arial Silks classes.
Don’t come here looking for 60 foot California walls… even though we have world class climbing around Vegas there is not a population to support elite indoor climbing gyms like you would find in other cities… comparing Nevada Climbing Center to what you would find in a huge metro area is unrealistic in my opinion, but is also the reason for 4 and not 5 stars.
