We really loved this climbing gym/bike park as a family, but ultimately the price had us cancelling…read moreour membership. Staff is wonderful and helpful. Facilities are amazing! We especially loved the bike park portion for our kid. At $160 a month for a family of 3 (since our 4th was free because she's under 4), we just couldn't afford it anymore. We asked if we could do a bike only membership, and they said they no longer offer them. I was also interested in the different groups they hosted (examples: homeschool groups, etc), but the group membership if I remember correctly was $160 per person just to be apart of groups. I really do wish they had something more all-inclusive at a better price, as well as just better prices all around. We were only able to go about once a week which just didn't make the high price tag worth it. We've been to similar climbing gyms for $100 a month for a family, so this was just too steep for our budget. I've heard from several other local families that have had the same experience. Hoping they make things more cost effective for future families to join!

I've paid more at other rock climbing gyms for a fraction of what I got here. The gym itself is small but there are several paths that are challenging and exciting.

Soco Falls is absolutely worth the stop if you're driving through the area. The waterfall is…read morebeautiful, and the photos honestly don't do it justice. That said... don't let the short hike fool you! The walk down isn't bad--it's the climb back up that will definitely remind you whether you've been keeping up with your cardio. Thankfully, there are handrails and benches along the trail because I absolutely took advantage of them on the way back. I thought I was in decent shape... the mountain quickly humbled me! My advice: wear good hiking shoes, bring water, and if you have a walking stick, use it. A neck fan isn't a bad idea either during the warmer months. Just because you see people tackling the trail in Crocs or flip-flops doesn't mean it's a good idea. If you're adventurous, there is a way to get down to the base of the falls, where people were swimming, but we admired it from the overlook instead. The surrounding mountain views are beautiful as well, making it an easy stop even if you're just passing through. If you're in the Bryson City/Cherokee area, don't skip Soco Falls. Just come prepared, take your time, and enjoy one of the prettiest waterfalls in Western North Carolina.

I was seeking a waterfall and didn't quite have time to make it to Cherokee and the Great Smoky…read moreMountains, and so located this turn-off a couple of miles off the Blue Ridge Parkway. The parking area is by the road, and the hike down to the falls is short, but of considerable grade. At the end, a platform allows viewing. You can't get anywhere near the falls or take a swim, and it seems like it would be a tough area even if there weren't a thousand signs telling you not to wander off the trail, which is shared with a driveway to some private property. It certainly isn't among the best Western NC waterfalls, but it's a nice site and it's free and open to the public, so not a bad place to stop depending on one's itinerary.

Luckily the staff was friendly and helpful with getting me set up with a (comfy Petzel!) rental harness and shoes. Check in and cash out was quick & easy. With the auto belay system for several routes of varying difficulty (I was able to do several within my skill range - 5.6 - 5.8) and attempt a couple of 5.9s) you could easily spend a few hours here even solo. I just had an hour but mission accomplished: several climbs fully completed, a couple attempted, and a good workout to break up hours of work travel. The gym was clean, the climbs were interesting, and the helpful staff was appreciated. Will definitely visit while traveling through again!

My 18 year old and I decided to try a guided climbing experience while in town. What an outstanding…read moreexperience we had with our guide, Pete! From our first phone call to book our climbing adventure to the minute we left the parking lot at the trailhead, Pisgah Climbing was professional, prompt, attentive, safe and super fun. Our guide was quick to figure out our skill and knowledge level in order to customize our climbing so that we felt adequately challenged but not in over our heads. One of us was more capable than the other and yet we still each were given a chance to try different pitches, and even repel! Having a guide that was informed about the local area, wildlife, (brought bug repellent for chiggers, which we didn't know about), and made it easy for us to meet up and get to the trailhead made all the difference. The equipment they use is well maintained and this guide was highly skilled. He was a good teacher/coach too. An excellent guide can read people and make smart, quick decisions based on conversation to build trust quickly with the participants. We had not one iota of doubt in our guide. This was pricey for us, but worth every bit of the cost.

It's just so far. But I loved how spacious it was. Cultivate is much more accessible in terms of location, but it's also much smaller and so incredibly cramped. The staff at the front desk was not super helpful and friendly. The night I went, which was an LGBTQ plus night, there seemed to be less of a welcoming field, then the riveter. I also got incredibly stressed because everywhere I walked I felt like somebody was gonna hit me or fall on me. Nice equipment but still less nice then the Riveter and other places I've been.
