This was our first climbing experience. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. We did our waivers on their website before going and the front desk staff got us started with an orientation right away. Having never climbed before, we were able to use the autobelays and their boulder area. Great experience, we'll definitely go back next timw we visit anchorage!

We were in Anchorage for holidays, staying nearby and just saw the place and wanted to take the kids there to try out the indoor climbing. We are just learners with limited experience of indoor climbing. We found their attitude to be tiresome towards us and condescending. Firstly - the liability forms take a long time for you to fill out. The intro to the facility was good initially, but then the belaying instruction was a bit excessive. Suggestion to management - dispense with this for learners and just tell us to use Auto-Belays only !? The facilities are spacious and modern, pretty impressive. I wouldn't bother visiting unless you're an experienced climber - the attitude of management was clearly not interested in having us there.

I took the kids to the Alaska Rock Gym today. Great gym, it is hard to believe Anchorage has such a great facility. Fantastic family fun.

What a terrific gym! The route setting was terrific....still up from Divisionals. The staff were very friendly but a bit understaffed for belay tests. Great beanbags to sit in. Airy and light....what a gem!

One of my favorite places. I don't really want to say thay because if more people go, it will be crowded and harder for me to climb, but it's a great local business and people should know about it. ARG does get busy during the weeknights after 5. Day time, late night right before close, and weekends are the best time to go. There is a bouldering wall, a lot of variety on the big wall, and on Friday nights a DJ spins tunes from atop the bouldering wall. Gear rentals are reasonable. The yoga instructors, especially Thea, are fantastic - my only complaint is how frequently users are late to yoga classes and I don't like the disruptions because they last 10 minutes into class.
