Definitely the new, premier climbing center in WNC. As someone who climbs solo fairly often I'd love to see more than just 3 auto belay systems, but the facility is gorgeous and there are tons of routes at various difficulty rating--for now I'll stick to bouldering! Would also like a locals discount and/or discount for bringing your own gear. I'm excited to see how the community responds to this new business.

This place is INCREDIBLE. If you are looking for a place to get some fun exercise, but also to stay a safe distance from others, this will definitely work. You can be as safe and basic as a strider bike or as nuts as the kids doing jumps on their BMXs. Really well designed and maintained.

This place is amazing! We have 2 young boys and it’s fun to watch them climb, ride, and explore in a truly unique environment. Hats off to the owners for making such a valuable investment in our community and thanks to the staff for making it a welcoming environment.

Awesome place. Kids camps are highly recommended. My daughter loved it and built essential bicycle and climbing skills, which translate into future self-sufficiency and stress coping mechanisms. Great staff. Friendly owners. Limitless potential.

The Riveter is an excellent addition to the community. The facilities are simple, clean, and beautiful. Being new to bouldering, I am excited to learn at a place with so many routes. Employees and other members/guests are super welcoming and encouraging! The covered bike park is fun, but I am excited about the outdoor bike park once it's complete!

Great park, great jumps, great staff, great riders! What else can I say about this place other than "it's great"? It was easy to book our times, e-sign our waivers, and I even got a guide at the last minute for all of us to work on our jumping skills. Super shout out to Walker for 1. his helpful tips, 2. his enthusiasm, 3. his skills!!! and 4. his patience in helping my group out with our jumping issues. I can't say enough great things about The Riveter and Walker Shaw in particular other than we are planning our next trip already.

Just pulling up to the building you know its going to be good! We were here for the first time today. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting. The crew was attentive and friendly. Kevin worked the bar and was very enjoyable and knowledgeable about the drafts on tap. The whole place is kid friendly and a great way to spend the day! We will be back 100%.

We had a great time. We brought our 2 year old just for the pump track and he had a blast. The staff was extremely friendly and everyone else there was great.

Perfect jump lines for all skill levels. They have a covered area that has a couple of bmx style jump lines and a small flow area. Outside they have 4 jump lines from a small-ish green line up to a big black line.

Absolutely awesome! The Riveter is a fantastic climbing gym and bike park (though I only tried the climbing gym today). There is nice diversity to the climbs. The gym strike a good balance between bouldering walls and rope climbs. You can also buy drinks at their indoor bar (but you can’t climb afterwards for obvious reasons). They’re working to add other cool features in the near future (like a weight room), so definitely worth returning from time to time.
