Vertical World Seattle

I had an amazing experience at Vertical World Seattle! The staff is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and passionate about climbing. They really look out for everyone, making sure we feel safe and supported throughout the workout. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, their friendly approach and willingness to help stand out. The atmosphere is welcoming, and you can tell the whole team genuinely cares about your progress and safety. I highly recommend this gym for anyone interested in climbing!

Bouldering section is fun, but the top rope and sport climbing areas are where this place shines. Staff were chill and helped answer all my questions. They do require you certify on top rope belay and sport climbing to do them, respectively.

Excellent place to climb, boulder, top rope, auto belay and lead!! Very friendly staff, clean facilities with clear rules and guidelines for climbers!!

The staff, the routes, the yoga teachers are all excellent! The routes in the gym are very diverse for all skill levels and use a variety of techniques to complete them. They also have a complete weight training gym. If you’re on the fence on signing up at Vertical World and think you’d enjoy climbing, I’d say go for it!

It seems like a cool gym, but you have to pass a belay test to even use the auto belay. The boulders are also set a bit hard with most being for more experienced climbers. Not much of as mix for more beginner routes overall.
