Blocs

Amazing climbing gym, the route setters are extremely creative and the gym is quite large and feels less crowded compared to other gyms in edmonton.nnI had my shoes accidentally taken while I was climbing and the staff were on top of it the next day and had my shoes returned to me cleaner than I left them. That was greatly appreciated.nnMy only critique is that the gym heavily smells like vinegar but I’m just assuming that’s because they take cleanliness very seriously which is another great thing.

Blocs is the homiest bouldering gym. It's the best!! There's just something about it that makes it so comfortable and friendly. Their prices are also good compared to other gyms. Their changerooms are always clean.nnTheir setting is always fun with dynamic!! As a beginner I can always find something to climb.nnParking can be tricky if it's busy usually Thursday and Sunday evenings. But you can just park in the back

Great place to hang out with friends! The day pass was reasonably priced, and they provide shoes if you don’t have your own. Also really loved the music they played, no need for headphones!

Good for beginners! Not so much for intermediate/advanced climbers. Setting once you get to V6 and up is pretty unimaginative and morpho. And definitely not as many climbs available. I would suggest forerunning your harder blocs with shorter people to ensure you're still being accessible while still pushing people to improve. Still always a fun time though! :

I absolutely love this rock gym. The ever-changing climbing walls give a challenge, but also never get boring. Not to mention, the helpful guide that let's you scope out the easier climbs.
