They have some fun climbs! I recommend a membership, the day passes can get a bit expensive

Great, fun place with amazing staff!My kids love being members and part of a climbing group. Aaron, Jake and Oscar do a great job coaching, encouraging and challenging the kids so they both respect and admire them.Overall, one of our favorite places to go and one of the most worthwhile we spend our money on!

Compared to the old location, this is extremely sub par, I love to boulder, that’s my preference, and I completed almost every course on y’all’s single wall in less than two hours, huge let down

Coming from eastern NM, it’s ~nearly~ the best gym in less than 4 hours drive. Just know before you go, it’s an arcade with 5ish top ropes and maybe 5 more auto belays, probably 30 Boulder problems. The pictures that show an arch/ leading are from an old gym. Have the lowest expectations you’ve ever had going to a climbing “gym” and maybe you won’t be too disappointed.

Only having this and TTU rock gym in the area, this place is definitely ideal for bouldering. There is a great variety of styles and difficulty, and they don’t hold back with creativity when setting! This even applies to the beginner problems, Something some gyms struggle with. The one thing I dislike and wish to see change is the lack of texture on the wall makes it impossible to smear, however this is made up with an abundance of chip foot holds.

We love it! Kids love it! Super friendly and patient with younger kids too.

Cool spot. Wish they could add more pull up style courses or areas to work on hanging or upper body strength. They have the beg board but that's a little too advanced for most to try. They usually change the pathways often too so it keep it's fresh for being such a small place.

Our non-profit Mended Little Hearts partnered with ARCH for our Rock Your Scar event for kids battling heart disease. Their staff and volunteers went above and beyond to provide such a fun night for our heart warriors and their family and …

As a fairly new member of the rock climbing community, I was met with open arms here at ARCH. This is THE place to meet fellow climbers and challenge yourself physically & mentally, and exercise your body. ARCH helped my wife and I find a fun exercise routine we can both enjoy together. I highly recommend this place!

My son has been climbing anything and everything since he was 7 months old. We discovered ARCH when he was around 9 but didn't realize climbing was a competitive sport until several years later. He attended summer camps there and had more fun than can be explained! Then it happened, we found out about the competetive side and have never looked back. Aaron is an AMAZING coach and mentor! We trust him as a member of the family! ARCH has new owners this year and they've been amazing! Highly recommend this place....and it's a life long sport! LOVE IT!!!
