Great climbing gym with a lot of old school charm. Had a deceptively large bouldering section upstairs, with campus board and moon board and plenty of boulder problems. Will go back next time im in Geelong.
Very very cool!Richard the host is awesome - great kit and challenging climbs for beginners and advanced.
Took the kids here today. Staff were busy talking about how drunk they got at Fatboy slim to help the children. I was disappointed to be told that they won't help the kids on the ropes and there is only 2 walls the kids can climb without someone helping them on the ground.I found the place to be dirty and in need of an update. The toilets were gross, hair everywhere over the floor and a full bin overflowing even though we were the first ones there after opening and only customers there the whole time.Please make it clear on the website that children need to have an adult each to support them. Or tell us before we pay. I assumed the staff would be helpful and be with us, teaching the kids what to do, but like I said they were too busy talking behind the counter loudly about partying.Waste of money and time.
Staff was very helpful and customer centric. Fun lead climbing sets. We are travelling through and the team was very accommodating allowing our lead climbing assessment done on the day without any hassles or bookings required. Will definitely come back
The snake are delightful the lollies were the same but the double choc chip cookie was the best! James B 9 year old A big fan of the Rock Adventure Centre!
Staff are excellent, 3 young guys with the best customer service. I was so shit at tying the rope, these guys were so helpful, patient and relaxed (I still did not get it right😆) . Facilities are awesome, upstairs is great . Highly recommend 10 out of 10 👍
Amazing rock climbing centre! Loved the experience.Ground and second floor, both with amazing rock walls. Kind staff members. Great climbing gym.Highly recommend to those who aren’t very sporty and would like to try something new!Thanks so much!
First time rock climbing, loved it.📅 Went on a Wednesday, not too crowded at all.💵 Paid $64 for two persons + shoes, harness, chalk. Were allowed to stay as long as we wanted.💪🏽 Got a short training exercise and were then free to do our own thing.👀 Always someone at Reception.🧗🏽♀️ Two rooms: one with rock climbing with ropes, one without ropes but crash mats.👫🏽 Fun date night activity.🅿️ Private parking areaTo be fair, the place is not too big, so I can imagine you can bump into other people easily when a bit more crowded. But worth to spend an evening here! 😊
Really solid gym, nice diversity in routes technique and grades. Richard is super knowledgeable and friendly, and an excellent setter. I wish this was closer so it could be my home gym.
This was a great experience for me and my daughter to enjoy the wonders of rock climbing and bouldering.
Wow what an awesome gym! This place rocks! Ha ha! Everything was great, except the kids which were annoying. Luckily they left soon after we arrived. Staff = friendly. Great times. Loved the old school aesthetic. Would go back for sure.
Awesome place to take the kids and keep them active and develop their skills in a controlled environment. Bouldering room upstairs is lots of fun and challenging, Downstairs is even better and the staff are really helpful. My advice is get the bag of chalk even for the kids. Makes a big difference. Thanks to the team at The Rock for the Awesome venue/experience.
Had so much fun with my daughter! Staff were friendly. It was super fun when we fell on the mattress! Felt great whenever she tried and made a step higher! A good indoor activity for rainy days 😄
We had our work Christmas party at The Rock and it was AWESOME.Great team bonding and fun - brought out the competitive spirit in us!We will be back!Team Sequence Osteo.
Favorite spot in Geelong ?? with the best and friendliest staff✅ you can hired all the equipment (shoes,chalk bag, harness)
I’m a beginner climber, and the team at the rock adventures were nothing but helpful and very informative on top of being extremely welcoming. Couldn’t recommend the rock adventures more.
First time rock climbing had great fun, staff very helpfull and friendly. If your a beginner youll have a good time.
It is a great experience. Great for children and adults at the same time, too. You go there once, and then you go multiple times after. Each time you go, you improve rock-climbing skills which help improve grip and confidence. I highly recommend this amazing place for all ages and people.
We took 60 girls from the National Girl Guide Jamboree rock climbing for the morning. The staff were fantatsic and the girls had an awesome time bouldering and climbing. Plenty of space for everyone and great facilities. We divided into two groups, so definitely enough harnesses for 30 people at one go. If you're in the Geelong area and enjoy climbing, pop into the Rock and give them a go
Just had the one climb on the ropes while holidaying in the area but I wish it was my local gym. Really thoughtful setting with fun movement on clean new holds.
Richard was a top bloke! It was my first time checking out this climbing gym. The guys were very friendly and patient in helping me get set up and inducted. The bouldering routes upstairs were well made and transition smoothly while still providing enough challenge for beginners and experienced climbers alike. I especially liked the fact that most of the surfaces were cave-like with a rocky texture. I didn't try out the top-roping section but there are lots of climbs to attempt if that's your thing! There's also a modest gear shop where they sell some shoes and other accessories. Richard, the owner, is a very experienced climber himself and is definitely worth having a chat to if you want to learn a thing or two!
Had a fantastic afternoon hanging out with my son rock climbing here in Geelong. Awesome facility with a great range of climbing features. Good helpful staff as well
Really enjoyed it with the family. First time we did it and instructors were friendly and demonstrated how to use rope, etc. It’s safe! Great spot with kids.
Amazing birthday party for Max at The Rock adventure centre. The staff were truly wonderful - giving their help and expertise with the rock climbing, in addition to putting on a great birthday party. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and their attitude was great. Absolutely 5 star effort. Thanks guys, we will definitely be back
Good climb experience. Downstairs was great. Upstairs had recently been flooded. Still accessible but strong wet smell. Staff were great. Plenty of good climbs to try. Shoes can be hired.
