VITAL Climbing Gym - Murrieta

Great gym! Friendly supportive staff and community

I’ve only gone once with a friend and it was my first rock climbing experience ever. It was a lot of fun but there was a problem. I jumped off the rock climbing wall from high up 2 or 3 times and ended up giving myself tendonitis in both patellar tendons and both quadricep tendons. It didn’t hurt at the time but the next day my knees felt a bit strange and I did some research on it. I didn’t really know that much about tendinitis and thought I’d be fine as long as I didn’t jump for a while but that was not the case. I went on a hike 2 days later and made my tendonitis way worse.So my message to everyone is to be careful while rock climbing wether it’s outdoors or in a gym. Always downclimb and only jump if you have to. Injuring yourself will always result in having to take time off the things you love or making yourself significantly worse because you didn’t take time off.

Our first trip to VITAL was incredible. The environment is so relaxed and inviting. Te staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. We were given a very explanatory tour of the facility which was very helpful. The color coordination of the holds was extremely helpful. Now I just need to build my strength and stamina to reach the top on more routes. We will definitely go back completely worth the price.

Amazing staff, setting, grading and atmosphere. Went here on a day pass while traveling and it is one of the best bouldering gyms I've been to in the country.

Relaxed atmosphere with very kind staff that was very helpful. Only offers bouldering but they have plenty of options with it. Recommended and will be returning 👍 …

My daughter has climbed here for 2 years. She's on climbing team and loves it. I have always found the staff to be very friendly. Quick to greet you with a smile.Climbing team has been great for my daughter, she's developed strength stamina, and they are starting to get into more competition which I know she's going to love.

Love these vital gyms. Smaller but very clean, modern and good sets. Great atmosphere.

This is by far my favorite rock climbing gym. The staff here is really chill, day pass pricing is fairly cheap compared to other gyms, and the quality of service here is really outstanding. 6/5 would recommend to anyone who boulders or wants to get into bouldering/rock climbing.

Just wanted to let everyone know that this is the best bouldering gym I've ever been to. The problems are fantastic! Love the challenging routes they have and the people that manage it! Awesome environment and for sure the place to pick if you would like to experience the wonders of bouldering or if you simply are in love with climbing!

With a clean, well-kept gym, this facility makes you feel comfortable just to be inside. The staff are friendly and will answer questions of all ranges. They want to make this the best experience you can get! The 24 hour a day members-only access is one of the best parts of the gym because you can enter and climb on your schedule. The routes cover all ranges of climbing and will challenge you, no matter what your level. I have been a member at this gym and it has held my (and my kids) attention and participation. A fantastic side effect for my kids is that not only is it improving their strength, it is improving their overall coordination and awareness!
