What are our Guests Saying
Don’t just take it from us, let our guets do the talkig!
“Nice gym, great for entry level climbers.
I wish there was more variety for the difficult climbs.
Cool to see “off hours” pricing.”
“Mainly an outdoor climber from California, but obviously wanted to climb while in Columbus. I was impressed with the setting and community here. Shout out to Sam who works there, he gave my girlfriend along with me an orientation where she learned a lot (guess I’m a bad teacher 🤷♂️). He is an awesome guy and deserves a raise. So, I had to shout him out. He made us feel very welcome and accepted, he was the best. Definitely gonna climb with that guy when I’m back. Check it out, it’s a great gym and great vibe 👌🤘”
“A friendly bouldering gym with problems for any skill level. Zach was terrific with our kids, and even added extra holds to help the two year old on one of the easy walls.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to take a class or make a reservation to climb at your facility?
Walk-ins welcome.
Supervision guidelines do apply, see the question below-regarding kids climbing in the facility.
If you're new to Chambers, but not to climbing, here are some steps to get you on the wall once you arrive.
ORIENTATION
Everyone must complete an orientation before being able to climb. To save time when you arrive we recommend you complete your waiver prior to arriving. Waiver
It’s my first time, what do I need to do?
EVERYONE entering our facility is required to sign a waiver and complete a brief orientation. Children under the age of 18 must have a parent or legal guardian sign a waiver for them and watch the orientation video. Supervision guidelines apply to all youth climbers.

Not permitted to belay (hold the rope)
Must follow these supervision guidelines:
4 years and under can climb within arm’s length of their supervising adult. Each adult can only supervise two children this young at a time.
5-7 years old can climb under direct supervision (can see and hear them at all times) of an adult. Each adult can only supervise two children this young at a time.
8-14 years old can climb under direct supervision (can see and hear them at all times) of an adult. Each adult can only supervise three children this young at a time.
Alternately, we offer youth classes check, them out here.
What kind of climbing do you offer?
We have bouldering which is climbing on shorter walls with no rope and lots of padding.
What is good gym etiquette?
We’re so glad you asked! Climbing is dangerous, so you must always be aware of your surroundings while in the facility. Keep space between climbers, don’t walk between an active belayer (person holding rope) and their partner, and don’t hold ropes if you have not passed a proficiency to use them. When bouldering, stay off the mats until you’re ready to climb, down climb a few holds when possible to avoid jumping from height, and if you fall hug your arms to your chest, land on your feet, and roll onto your back to disperse the force. See our orientation video for more information!
