Crag X Indoor Climbing Centre

Best climbing in Victoria due to the variety of routes and regularly changed bouldering walls. If you're exclusively into bouldering id recommend Boulder house but if you're either just starting or enjoy top rope as well I'd highly suggest CragX.

Climbing is my first choice for upper body strength cross training, Crag X is a fantastic facility, with a wide array of challenges, and a great studio for stretching out afterwards. Safe, clean facility with great staff to sort it all out!

There is no better place for indoor top rope in town. Ok, it is the only place, but the routes are challenging and quite enjoyable. The bouldering is good; routes tend to be more vertical, where other spots have a healthier mix of transversal climbs. Where you'll find this gym excels is in its approach to community; staff are incredibly friendly and during the pandemic the management took great care of their monthly members.

Gym is pretty nice, good mix of lead, tp, and boulder, the grading of climbs is a little bit off I would say though from personal experience, I'd say 1 grade higher on average than what it should be; not a big deal though. Belay and lead tests are also very picky, should be a bit more tolerant on different ways as long as it is safe. But I think they have gotten a bet better in the recent years and more understanding. Good job on taking responsibility and taking precautions during these times. Even with 0 current active cases on the island, I am glad that the masks are a requirement, I am glad they ask me precaution questions each time I walk in, and that I am reminded every time to wash hands before and after. These are all good things and I am happy they enforce it.

Fantastic routes, friendly staff, and lots of variety. All around one of the best gyms I've ever climbed at
