Vertical View Climbing Gym

Mark was amazing today at a birthday party event. My youngest has gone climbing a few times, things had never fully clicked. At the party he was overwhelmed. Mark made eye contact, spoke directly to him and was the first one to get him to climb today. In addition, my son had never made it all the way to the top during one of his climbs in the past. Mark encouraged him to the top. Beyond that, he gave great instruction and encouragement. Because of Mark, my son felt confident enough to climb other sections with other members of the team. All of the V V team was really great; but Mark made our day. Can’t wait to go back on our own to continue climbing.

This is one of the nicest climbing gyms I've been to. It has everything you need from bouldering to lead climbing to fitness classes and weight training. The staff is very friendly too! And the culture is welcoming no matter what your experience is. I know a lot of other climbing gyms feel kind of exclusive, especially on your first time going. But this one has plenty of people willing to mentor you and help you get better.

Amazing staff and such a friendly environment. The gym has a lot of rope walls and boulder problems available, and a 65ft lead wall. Great place for beginner climbers and advanced climbers; they have climbing walls from a few feet tall for kids and new climbers starting out, all the way up to the 65ft head wall. Plus, it is the only gym that I know of anywhere in the area that has some outdoor top rope problems. The staff puts on many activities, climbing classes, and climbing events for members, as well as hosting USA Climbing events. I started out as a new climber at this gym in the summer of 2022 and have been able to progress a lot here because of the multiple classes offered, challenging problems and the countless help and tips I’ve received from the staff and climbing coaches, as well as other patrons climbing at the gym. I took a couple of climbing classes to learn basic and advanced movements from foot placement to body positioning that really helped, and some of the best classes were their “Transition to Outdoors” and “Multi-pitch” classes where they teach climbers the skills they need to climb outdoors. I wouldn’t have picked up these skills anywhere else and it really instilled a lot of confidence when I started outdoor climbing. This is a great gym to go to; check it out.

AMAZING climbing gym! I just do bouldering, but it had some pretty cool harness walls. The staff was SO cool, and really welcoming. As for the bouldering, just so great. A good variety of easy and hard routes, and it sounds like they change everything often so there are always new challenges. I love that they had plenty of middle of the road routes for people (like me) who aren’t great climbers, but aren’t beginners! Also met the guy who makes the sticker and got a couple. Really nice high quality stickers! Thanks Vertical View for the AMAZING Boise(Meridian) experience!

Outstanding facility for both beginner and experienced climbers. All the staff we met were personable and professional - this place has a great vibe. Over 25 years, we’ve been to a lot of climbing gyms worldwide from Alaska to Istanbul , and this one tops them for all-around experience.
