Great for aspiring youth competitive climbers. Note: This facility has no rope climbing and some of the photos on Yelp are from the old location. There are no birthday parties. And the setup would be extremely challenging for beginners. read more

My two young girls came here to earn their rock climbing badges for American Heritage Girls. They had such an amazing time! They loved the boulder climbing the best. It was a little stressful for me because we had a large group of kids and there were other adults climbing, falling, and jumping, but the staff was so patient with the girls. Thank you!!! read more

Came here on a Tuesday because my sister and I thought they offered free yoga classes. Well, if you paid for a day pass then it's free so we did. It was 15$ and we got to climb after. The service is excellent and the guy who helped us was really friendly and all smiles. He was very patient when we had no idea what was going on and told us that they had yoga mats for the session. Everyone here was actually really fun and friendly. My friend is a regular here so everyone was saying hi to her and she kinda told me the ins and outs of the place. That being said, yoga was intense. I had a lot of fun and definitely learned a lot. My sister and I went on the tunnels which, is kinda scary if you don't have a partner or if you're afraid of getting stuck in small spaces. Really fun though if you're with someone hilarious and ready to break their bones trying to fit in the holes. I suggest being the second one in so you can let the first person figure it out. Anyways, if you're bored in the YL, check this place out and maybe gain a healthy, cool hobby. read more

Great service. =) This place would be 3rd biggest after Sender One & Rockreation Sport Climbing Center but it's not as new/ nice as Sender One is. Climbing fees are $12 per person plus $6 for climbing rentals. Climbing with belaying area is pretty small but routes are harder & not as high as the routes at Sender One. Great place 2 climb or boulder if it's your 1st time. Good for newbies to learn how to & practice climbing. People are very nice & friendly here so don't feel too awkward if you've never been here before. Tip: there's a Groupon deal right now going on for this place which is a good deal. read more

I went to this place firstly after my friend introduced me to bouldering on the hot rock plains of Joshua Tree National Park. I really enjoyed myself out there, albeit the scorching sun and dry weather. Still, I didn't want to drive out 200 miles into the desert just to climb some rocks. Sure, I could go to a cliff somewhere and try to do that, or pretend I was a gecko at work and try climbing the brick walls (not that I did). Instead, he pointed me to this place and after a year of absence, I came back here and it felt like I never left. ATMOSPHERE: 4 stars The place is located inside a business center and if you weren't looking, you would completely miss it. Who would think to build and place rock climbing walls inside a business building? The fine people at Rock City did. The place is great. Open space, crash pads on the floor, and walls to be climbed. Even if you're new, the place is welcoming and invites exploration. Don't be afraid. STAFF: 5 stars The staff is chill. Maybe it's because they enjoy their job. Maybe it's because they're helping people who are also chill. Or maybe, just maybe, because they get paid very very high wages. Nah. I'm pretty sure it's the first two. Whatever the reason, the staff is knowledgeable and completely there for you if you need something. Just don't be afraid to ask, especially if you're new. COMMUNITY: 5 stars Like most communities, the common interest of people really get them friendly. Here is no exception. The rock climbing is fun and if you ever have difficulty ascending a path, there are plenty of people who will give you advice. All you have to do is look. Here, even if you come alone, you don't have to feel alone. VARIETY: 4 stars If you come here often, you might get bored after a while if there aren't challenges for you. Luckily, there are plenty of paths to be had, and they change out the grips into different paths every month or so. They could use a little more work on labeling some of the path difficulties, but overall, easy to use. CONCLUSION Whether you are an avid rock climber or just an enthused noob, the place is a great find for all those who enjoy climbing. Although you might not be sure at first, give it a chance and I'm sure you'll enjoy it (even those who just want to see some eye candy). They even have rappelling and paths for kids. Also, they have free climbing for up to 4 people who are friends of a member. With so much value, why aren't you there now?! read more

Ever been in a situation where it's raining outside and you totally want to climb on stuff, but your mom won't let you? I mean c'mon, you're 32 and she still won't let you climb on stuff in the house? What the heck mommy? Well you're prayers are answered if you happen to live or be around the Anaheim area. If so, you should hit up Rock City. Most of the gym is for bouldering, but there's a small area for top-roping, but if you're looking to rope up and have a harness strangle your boys downstairs (something only men truly understand), then you're better off going to SenderOne (LAX or Santa Ana) as the walls at Rock City aren't particularly tall. Besides if you're going to strap on a harness and squeeze Jasper and Reggie down there, you might as well get on a really long climb which would not be Rock City. Ratings for the problems are easier than the Factory, but harder than Cliffs of Id. Sender would be between Rock City and Cliffs in my humble opinion. Being a smaller gym the route settings are definitely more creative since there are obvious roofs, slab top outs, and crazy overhangs. The staff at Rock City is very friendly and the it has a nice neighborhood gym feel. Not very corporate. What do I mean by that? Think mom and pop small coffee/cafe shop as opposed to Starbucks. At Starbucks you're paying for flashy, hip and cool while at Mom & Pops you're paying for coffee. When all you really want is coffee why are you listening to Enya music and worrying if the water is gluten free? Capiche? https://youtu.be/zKmDqXhxVOI read more

I had my daughter's birthday party here and had an amazing experience. I recommend doing for anywhere from 20 to 30 people, because we had 26 people and the room was JUST the right size. Any more than 30 and it would have felt crammed. The pricing here for a party is such a great deal because the kids get a fun experience and you get the party room. You can bring your own food, decoration & they even have a fridge you can keep perishables in. However you get only two hours with the party package but Can add an additional hour for $75. I wish I would have added that extra hour! I felt like by the time the kids started getting the hang of rock climbing it was already 1 hour down. If I could do this again the extra hour is a must. Again this faculty and staff were awesome! I wish I could remember his name but he was tall, tall flowy hair & was a pleasure to have host us. read more

So I have been to countless climbing gyms as it's a big part of my life. I have never heard of many of my friends coming in to this gym so I saw the reviews and figured I'd give it a try. I have never been more disappointed in a climbing gym. The owner was running the front desk, not friendly at all, and seemed bothered by having to check new people in. My friend had to rent equipment and it was old and DIRTY. Moving into the actual climbing area, I have never seen a dirtier gym. That place hasn't seen a good wash probably ever. The mats are old, lumpy, crusty, dirty, and definitely lack cushion. Now moving onto actual climbing. The holds are so full of dirt you can't even see the color of them. Doesn't look like routes have been changed in a long time. But the worst part, the ropes are OLD, sticky, and not adequately placed to ensure climbers are safe on different routes. Additionally, the ropes are anchored to the ground. You don't tie in as the belayer. You just pull the rope through the grigri that is anchored into the ground. It is very foreign to me to do that, and is not proper climbing technique. Getting the rope through the grigri is almost impossible because of sticky residue all over it. Overall, this place is not for avid climbers. I think it's more catered to little kids and their parents who don't know any better and are just looking for entertainment. If you actually want to climb and be safe and challenged at the same time, literally ANY OTHER GYM is better than this. It's a cool layout and has the potential to be awesome if anyone cared to maintain it and upkeep it. read more

Spent an amazing hour and half of our Saturday evening at Rock City and we LOVED IT! My husband and I wanted to do something a little out of our comfort zone for our anniversary and we had never climbed before so we ventured in about 5p on a Saturday night. The guy working that night (I feel so bad I didn't get his name) was AMAZING! He was so patient, explained everything so well, and we still encouraging and fun! It was a pretty quiet night I think; only a handful of other people there. So maybe we got lucky because we basically had free run of the place and could try any of the routes and rocks. I would give this place a 10 out of 10 and would highly recommend it! We will be back! read more

This was my first time rock climbing EVER and it was pretty fun! I went here with my friend who frequently rock climbs on a late Saturday afternoon. Getting here was a little confusing (but most of the businesses in this part of Anaheim usually are). We entered through the back, through what looked like a warehouse door at first. Nope. Not an abandoned warehouse. "That's the entrance," my friend assured me. It was ~$20 for a day pass, climbing shoes, and a bag of chalk. The front desk person was really chill and we had a few conversations throughout my time there because there were hardly any people climbing. I should preface anything else I say about my experience by saying that I'm really scared of small spaces and free-falling. Regardless of this, I still went through the tunnels and bouldered (free climbed, without rope & harness). It was still really fun though! I mean as much fun as this could get for someone with the particular phobias I have haha. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back on my own volition (but, again, that is because I have a lot of fears NOT because of this place or the people). With that said, however, if any of my friends wants to go rock climbing, I will definitely suggest this place first! read more

Nestled among business buildings trust your GPS that you've arrived at this fun, affordable rock climbing gym to climb up walls like Spiderman. Mostly bouldering but there is a section where you can use rope and belay on. Their staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. I agree with the other reviews; there is a pretty sweet and strong community here. It is a good place for newbies like myself to start learning the ropes or no ropes. Eat your Wheaties before coming here because it does take some upper body and leg strength. Tip: Try the tunnel if you are small enough! Tunneling through the walls and over the ceiling of Rock City is such a cool and unique experience you will not get at other gyms. However, only attempt if you are okay with exploring dark, small spaces. The staff gave us headlights to use which were definitely useful. read more

Rock City is a small climbing gym in Anaheim. It is located in an industrial center, so you will need your maps app to find it. When we arrived, we were greeted by someone at the front that checked us in. He showed us the room with the rental shoes and chalk bags. We were able to change in the bathrooms, but they don't have official locker rooms. After we were all set up, we were given a tour of the facility and instructed on where novice routes were. It was helpful to know where to stay and where to avoid. Fortunately, there were only a few other people at the gym. I could see it getting crowded during peak hours. This is a nice gym to get in your climbing fix, but it's nothing spectacular. read more

I was introduced to Rock City through a groupon deal and despite my fear of heights and lack of upper body strength, I found Rock City to be the perfect place to build my endurance and get a bit healthy at the same time. Rock City contains a good balance of indoor rock climbing obstacles that include bouldering (no rope) or belaying (w/ rope) courses. All courses vary in difficulty that can be distinguished by the colored ribbons of the "rocks". If you want to traverse the dark tunnels with a flashlight, you can but only two people can enter at any given moments. Of course, if you've rock climbed at an indoor facility before, none of what I just said should be unfamiliar. What makes Rock City awesome is that the people who work and climb there are very friendly - the regulars convey a sense of community. While the actual square footage of the area isn't large, you would be hard pressed to be bored with so much to do. There's plenty of parking outside and be sure not to pass this place by when you are looking for it for the first time - Rock City is located in an industrial park. Rock City comes highly recommended by me if you want a great indoor rock climbing arena in Orange County. read more

I've been to one other rock climbing place and I do enjoy both. This one has more bouldering than belay courses, so the money is worth your buck if bouldering is your thing. It's pretty challenging, (even the most basic ones) so I would recommend shoes and chalk, and if your hands start hurting, you can ask the front desk for tape! 15$ for day pass +shoes, BUT you can use your own closed toed shoes if you choose to do so! The staff is incredibly nice and welcoming, makes the rules quick and clear. What stands out with this place for me is the 'cave' like thing. If you're not down for closed spaces, it's not for you. At times I felt too close to everything and got claustrophobic ish, but it wasn't too bad. It was pretty interesting and fun, extremely dark, so ask for a flashlight or bring your phone! I had a great time and if I'm around the area, I would go, but other than that, I'm reside a lot closer to sender one. HOWEVER, the prices here are relatively cheap, so it's a great place to climb!! read more

We came here with our Groupon deal and I'm already in love. I've been to a few other rock climbing gyms but this one has a more local-love feel to it. By that, I mean, its not a big commercial gym, so people here don't treat you like just another customer. This is the average Joe type of gym where they care and treat you like a life-long member. Yes, its smaller and older but is sufficient for beginners and intermediate climbers. Plenty of climbing surface for bouldering and top rope. Their top rope is also different from any other gyms I've been to, meaning the belay techniques and equipment is easier and less complicated. It might be the older style of belaying but I don't mind it. There is a really cool tunnel that stretches across and above the entire gym, and you can crawl through it with a flashlight. It's fun for the first couple of times....mostly fun for the kids. it's usually never crowded here when we come climb which is nice. one of the staff members did tell us that they are planning a renovation soon to replace some of the old stuff, so i'm pretty excited about that. because it is cheaper than most other climbing gyms, we will likely get long-term memberships once our groupon deal runs out :) read more

This past weekend, I went to Rock City for my sister's birthday. We reserved a party and the owner, Maurice, took care of us. He showed us how to put on our harnesses, aka our Sunday pants, and made us feel really comfortable since we were all first timers, for the most part. I was very nervous that I wouldn't be able to do it, but it was surprisingly not as hard as I thought it would be and not as scary. They have walls for all levels of skill. By the end of our 2 hours, most of the group was bouldering, climbing without the ropes, and also trying some of the harder walls. There's a cave, which is more like a tunnel, that runs through the entire gym. I didn't go in it, but I wouldn't suggest tall people to enter. Overall, we had a great time! I'm definitely going to go back! Prices are very reasonable! read more

Well it has now been over two months since I visited this gym but I have fond memories. I only came here once but the layout of routes, friendliness of staff and over all feel would make me come back everyday if I lived closer. They have a good selection of various levels of routes with interesting problems moving from one room to another. The bouldering is pretty low so there were no height issues with the moves as in many gyms, and by height issues I mean both the reachy problem issues and the crux being too high off the ground to want to attempt the moves. I have been to BCR, ARC, Hanger18(both), Arizona, Seattle and Vegas gyms, so I have a few to compare to in that sense. Sure some of the other gyms have been a little cleaner and some have been a lot larger but overall I would choose this gym over many of the aforementioned gyms just because of the staff interaction and friendliness. I will be back soon. read more

*** High Ropes Course Review*** I've been to Rock City a few times and have always enjoyed it, so I decided to book a private party for my leadership class at their off-site ropes course. My students loved the high ropes course and conquering their fears. My favorite part was the zip line to the bottom. I was really impressed with Rock City's ropes course They charged only about $15 each and it was a truly memorable team-building experience. Thanks!! read more

It was my 2nd time rock climbing at an indoor facility like this one. The price was fair ($15 for free climbing and shoes), the pads were nice and comfy to jump on, and the climbing routes were neither discouraging nor too hard. If you go inside the "cave" make sure you bring a flashlight! The front desk guy said it wasn't necessary, but I can tell you that if you hate smelly body odor, tight spaces, and/or temperatures that will make you pour sweat, you should DEFINITELY bring one. Four stars for the bad air circulation :[ read more

The most unprofessional business I have ever had to deal with. We paid for three people a membership in full, which got extended due to being closed for Covid. Well we only were able to use our membership for a few months and now they're closed?! No email, nothing on their website!! The only way we found out was that someone told us that they had posted on Instagram (which we don't use!!).. Over the last months we have called and emailed NUMEROUS times. No answer. Extremely unprofessional, we want back our hundreds of dollars we have paid UPFRONT. The fact that we can't even get a single response from the business owner is beyond me. read more

This place is pretty bad ass! Devin (sp?) is a cool cat and showed us the ropes (pun, obviously, intended). First time here and we signed up for the 2 months for $40 Groupon special when we were done...awesome deal, considering one time is $20 with gear. Can't wait to come back! read more

The OC Ropes Obstacle course is a definite must try for team/group bonding. It helps you channel your energy towards course completion and helping your teammates complete, as well. This course is inside an RV park. Not that hard to find if you just follow the road and see a tall obstacle course. The staff - Shawn, Josh, and David - were professional, funny, and super careful in making sure you have a SAFE and GREAT experience. If you are hesitant, do not worry. I did this to overcome at least the fear of heights. The evil clown fear may take longer to overcome... I digress. As you are working the course, you will forget about the height and focus on what to do to get to the other side. Teammates cheering helps. And breathing and following the rules outlined before you begin is important. The zip-lining part at the end is the best! Most important rule: have fun. ;) read more

I've taken the kids here a couple of times and we had a birthday party here as well. The kids always have a great time and the staff is very helpful in explaining the safety and different difficulty levels. This place is a gem. Also, there is a lounge area with a Foosball table. If the kids get tired, they can relax a bit and then do some more climbing. read more

They have a special; if you come here on the third Tuesday of each month with a member of rock city, you get in for free. the caving experience was awesome. if you are claustrophobic, do not go inside! i warned you. it gets stuffy and smelly inside the man build cave, but the experience was well worth it. i could totally see a horror movie getting filmed inside the cave. with blood on its walls, and a monsters lurking around every corner... yeaaa... sorry if i scared you, but i swear i'm not psycho. as for the rock climbing walls, they are legit. there are an equal number of free climb and rope assisted walls for the beginners to the advance users. the staff are friendly, and everyone is super helpful at the place. its like a mini community. just remember to bring water. it gets HOT inside. if you don't sweat, then you are just rock climbing wrong... lol read more

State of the art facility, and the owner, Maurice, is a legend! If you're looking for an all-natural high, look no further!

We had a team party here and I would NOT recommend it. I would have given 1 star for the terrible accommodations for the party, but I gave it 2 stars because the boys did enjoy the rock climbing. For the party we had to set up all the table and chairs ourselves, the room was very hot and we were not given an option to make it any cooler. There were spider webs in the corners of the room-- definitely not clean. The bathroom was just gross. read more

Such a fun date night thanks to my novia! The employee working Saturday night was very helpful and took the time to demonstrate proper techniques and the right way to handle the ropes! Everything is indoors and the walls are sectioned by difficulty. Cost: $15 for a day pass and it includes a shoe rental. The day pass gives you access to everything inside. Difficulty: Not bad for my first time. At first everything seems impossible to do, but it's only a matter of some confidence and descent skill to get started. Every wall is rated by the difficulty level. 5.5 is the easiest and the hardest is 5.11. The rating measures the incline and level of rock grip. I have to admit, you do need upper body strengths and some endurance to handle the climbing. Experience: I had a blast! My greatest fear is heights, so I was a bit skeptical at first but with practice I got more comfortable. I didn't reach the top but I got pretty close. Overall, such a fun experience. They also have an indoor maze for CHILDREN. I'm a big guy and I wasn't aware the cave Maze was very tight. So I learned the hard way, I was stuck and didn't get far. Such a funny experience. But anyways, I highly recommend this place. read more

Maurice and his climbing gym rocks! Next best thing to climbing outdoors. Forearms are all veiny too! Lol

I always wanted to get into climbing without having to drive out of town to do it and this is what I found here. I also wanted to find an activity for my oldest daughter to improve her upper body, hand strength , etc. so that she could improve in her chosen sports and this is what I found here. It's literally down the street from my house. It's perfect. I've never been to any climbing gym but I've been to gyms and the reason why I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 star rating is that I think it could be kept cleaner. Other than that, it looks like a great place to train. read more

I grew up with ballet, ice skating, gymnastics, swim, track, and any and all sports they offered at our school when I was a kid. It's safe to say I was blessed with supportive parents who provided me opportunities to compete, but when I competed, it was rare to find what I've found at Rock City - friendly and encouraging spirits! I was rather hesitant to visit being that (1) I hate crowds and (2) I have a moderate-severe case of acrophobia. However by the end of the night, I was glad to have gone even though I was shaking by the time my feet touched the ground. Rock City is a solid choice for beginners like myself to start. I was a little turned off by the crowds and all the heat trapped inside, but being as how I went on the 3rd Tuesday of the month with a member and only had to pay for the $3 shoe rental, I can't complain too much! I haven't been to other climbing gyms to give a fair comparison, but Rock City wasn't at all what I had imagined. It's in a small, warehouse type space...and there didn't seem to be too much space dedicated to top-roping. When walking in, make sure to sign in and complete a waiver! read more

I was craving some rock climbing excitement so I came here! Rock City is located in the middle/back of a business park so don't think you're in the wrong area! It is a pretty random place to have a rock climbing center. It was about $20 per person including shoes and halters. We haven't been rock climbing very much so they taught us how to us the ropes and everything. They also provided some chalk. This place does look kinda small at first glance but there are a variety of walls all with different levels of difficulty! They also have many bouldering walls, some where if you reach the top you can climb over and just come down using a ladder. They also have a cool tunnel that goes all around the center. It's pretty small so only kids could have fun with that. All in all, a solid place to get a good arm/upper body workout! read more

Rock City is freaking cool! My friend has been really into recreational rock climbing as of late, and he brought me in on member's night to check out the place. As long as you came with a member on one of these nights, you get to climb for free. Shoe rentals, however, are $3; but that's a steal. The place was pretty tricky to find. It's a warehouse in a pseudo-dark alley setting. The insides were different types of rock climbing walls and of different difficulties. There was an area where you can go climb with a harness and plenty of places to just climb without. The rule is, if you climb above 15 feet, then you have to wear a harness, if not, you're in the clear. I had a freaking blast. I'm a fairly fit guy, and I managed to do fairly well, but there is definitely a lot of technique involved. How it works is, all the rocks are color-coded, and once you pick a color, you have to stick with that path. I stuck with the harness-free climbs. When you clear every rock in your path, you end up over a wall that takes you downstairs to the front door. If you haven't tried it before, come on a member's night and give it a try! If you end up liking it, Groupon has a good deal that comes around every once in a while. read more

This is my home gym so I might be biased. They have G R E A T membership rates and are really flexible. The day rates are $12 for the day with $3 for shoes and $1 for chalk. I think they have a full gear and day package for $17. This place isn't the cleanest, chalk everywhere (the bathrooms are clean though!) but the people are the friendliest and the place has a lot of character. A lot of people hang out before and after climbing just to hang out. The routes are changed often enough. There are a lot of walls with different terrain angles. The place is probably better for bouldering but plenty of people are top roping and belaying here. The gym is separated into sections. The left most side of the gym is for top rope with some of the same holds used for traversing. The pillar is a big pillar with bouldering routes on the sides and front but with a back acting as a top rope head to head racing area. The side wall is a nearly straight wall with a triangle feature jutting out. The cave is next to it and is a room with concave walls like a cave. Hang upside down in here! Then comes the front wall. It has mostly straight walls but with a large feature in the middle making some routes angled ones. The far right of the gym is the top put room. Part of it is for top roping but most of it is for topping out. You have to climb to the top and climb over the wall on to a walk way area then climb down stairs to return into the gym. It's s very satisfying achievement. It's a great place to climb! Every third Tuesday is free with a member so come make friends! It's also not a bad place to bring a date ;) read more

Rock City Climbing - Gyms Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

This is a great place to go climbing. The staff is very friendly, and all of the people who climb there are really nice. They do top roping and bouldering here. Bouldering is more of my thing. The best part for me is taking a break and watching the more experienced climbers attempt more difficult bouldering problems. A lot of the holds look impossible to a newbie like me who can barely finish VBs and V0s. What worries me sometimes, though, is when they have groups with a bunch of little kids. The staff keeps telling them not to run in the gym, but sometimes they do. And then, when they walk around, a lot of the time they don't look around and they walk directly underneath where you're climbing. When you're bouldering, you don't have a person on belay if you fall. When you fall, you fall, and sometimes I'm afraid of falling onto one of those kids. If you're looking for a workout but bored with the usual gym fare, give rock climbing a try. Invest in some good climbing shoes and a chalk bag. Oh, and some tape. Until you develop some calluses (and even afterward), your fingers are going to get pretty tore up. "I found out today that blood and chalk create cement." read more

Great place for beginners and intermediate alike. There is a narrow area, so try to avoid it when more people get there or you'll feel claustrophobic. Get in early on the weekends to beat the herd. Last time I visited the mats needed some cleaning because it stunk. read more

If you're just starting rock climbing, this is a great place to go. I came here thinking it was just climbing up over an over again but it was actually really fun. They have rock climbing and bouldering for $14 a day. The guys working there were really helpful and nice. The place also has tunnels that you and another person could crawl through. Really cool! They also offer this thing that is like a tight rope that they'll set up for you if you want to try. Overall, great place! read more

Saturday, July 30, 2011 First time rock climbing and it was quite the experience. The guy behind the counter was really nice and chill. He pretty much new we were new and showed us the ropes. He really did a good job teaching us how to use the top rope and told us we could feel free to free climb if we felt ready. Pricing per person was about $14 for the ropes, $3/per harness, and $3 for shoes. It came out to around $40. We tried out top roping first. I thought I was so BA top roping my first wall until I got to the other walls. Man! It is tiring stuff. My arms sometimes didn't have the strength to hold on so I just hung in the air for a minute before I got back on the wall. The walls aren't that high but it's good for beginners who aren't trying to out do themselves too much. I think I definitely like top roping more than bouldering. I tried to free climb, what a fail. These kids after me made me look like a joke! They climbed so easily! The mats are bit worn and sweaty from the countless shirtless buff men, but as long as the mats do what they're supposed to, it doesn't really matter how it looks.
