A rock climbing gym that welcomes both novices and experts of the sport to take advantage of our top rope walls and 100+ bouldering problems!

Natives of Bergen County, NJ, they knew there was a need for a state-of-the-art climbing gym in the county and wanted to share their passion for the sport.

We’ve made some changes to our auto-belays! We’ve added a backup/second clip to our system in order to prevent the webbing from retracting all the way to the ceiling. The backup/secondary clip should always be the FIRST thing you attach to your harness and the LAST thing coming off of your harness. The carabiner attached to the end of the webbing and the backup/secondary clip both attach to your belay loop simultaneously. Feel free to ask the desk if you have any questions!
