Portland Rock Gym - Northeast

I just completed my first 101 class at Portland rock gym and I had a wonderful time! Not only did I feel welcomed as a newcomer to pretty much all of this but i felt like I learned so much! Sylvie was such a great instructor. She was detailed in her explanations and encouraging to the whole class to try out the different techniques and types of climbs. I can’t wait to learn more and make new friends! Thank you Sylvie :)

We did a lead climbing course with Erin and can highly recommend it! She is so good at taking you step by step through all the ascpects of lead climbing. And she is really good to adjust to all levels of climbers. I am personally afraid of falling practice and it honestly felt super safe and I built confidence in falling easily. Thank you!

My boys and I love it here. Such a welcoming climibing place. We had my youngests birthday party and they were so amazing. I highly recommend Talia and Sylvie - they handled a motley crew of 12 year old boys like pros. It was a great time!

I recently visited Portland Rock Gym, and I can't say enough about how fantastic this place is! The facility is spacious, with an impressive variety of climbing walls that cater to all skill levels, from beginners to experienced climbers. The walls are well-maintained and offer a challenging yet fun experience with a wide range of holds and routes. The bouldering area is particularly well-designed, offering both overhangs and vertical climbs, which are perfect for pushing your limits. The gym also offers a comprehensive schedule of fitness and yoga classes, which is a great bonus if you're looking to supplement your climbing with other forms of exercise. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to offer tips or assistance. Overall, Portland Rock Gym is a top-notch facility that provides a welcoming environment for climbers of all levels. Whether you're looking to improve your skills, try something new, or just have fun, this is the place to be. I highly recommend it!

My brother and I took the Learn to Belay class from Greg- he was fantastic! Definitely need to give that guy a raise. He was patient and very knowledgeable. He gave us good practice time and taught us all the basics. I also love that this gym gives you a free week of entry and rentals if you take their Learn to Belay course to practice the skills you’ve learned. Smart! We’ll definitely be coming back.
