BlocHaus Bouldering Canberra

Really good gym. You have friendly, helpful and kind staff. The way you run your social media is awesome, frequent reset sectors, it is all communicated and documented very well. Once when my friend fell and hurt herself, your team did a great job of looking after her. Thank you!

Great facilities, great vibe, great staff, great coffee… but no longer family friendly. They built a special section called Family Haus, complete with a slide. But now it seems they have change their target customer base as kids are essentially no longer welcome. It’s not enough to claim safety as the sole reason because my 4 year old understands the safety rules. Unfortunately this has ruled me and my partner out of coming as he’s no longer allowed to visit. Disappointing.

I've only been bouldering for about 2 months but I have been to bouldering places in Australia and the US and this gym has always been at the top of my list for dynamic and enjoyable climbs, inclusivity, staff, and cleanliness. The decision to use coloured holds as the grading system instead of 'V-Grade' tags is a great decision as it doesn't let someone get hung up on the 'real' grades of the climbs (although you can estimate what they would be), and also makes the routes more readable from a distance. Great for beginners and pros, and everyone in between. The memberships can get pricey but it all depends on your perspective on what you want to get out of it.Would recommend to everyone!

Blokhaus is so good. Staff are friendly and accommodating. The problems are interesting, and the family Haus section is a great inclusion. I witnessed a large child being unsupervised by his parent routinely climb under and over other children on the wall, and this same child then fell onto their toddler relative who was jumping on the mat. I get that little kids will behave like this, however I totally understand why many climbing gyms exclude young children.

Great climbing gym! Very good for entry level and intermediate climbers and the highest grade will provide a great challenge for experienced climbers. The gym has a nice upstairs training area with a spray wall, moonboard and campus board.The atmosphere is great. The staff are supper friendly and welcoming. The gym is incredibly supportive of all people from all walks of life. They offer special groups such as the climbing qt's and the affinity initiative. Great for kids as well with the special section devoted to kid's climbing.

Friendly staff, great experience and reasonable price ($23 adults and $7 shoe hire).Blochaus has climbing walls for all different levels, ages and sizes. Toilets, coffee and gym also available at location. Dogs welcome.Overall blochaus is a friendly fun place to exercise and challenge yourself.Only gripe is with the membership monthly free friend entry which is calculated every 30 days instead of one per calendar month.

When blochaus first opened it was a very family friendly space with some rope climbs and a dedicated kids area.Then they expanded into a family section, leaving kids out of the majority of the gym. Kids cost almost the same as adults but can't even use most of the gym.Now they've restricted ages, made supervision ratios such that a parent can't even take more than one child over 6, and restricted times that kids are in the gyms.I have some keen climber kids who have been doing weekly lessons elsewhere since kindy. Unfortunately we won't be visiting blochaus again.Edit - I have read the response below and looked at the options for kids programs. They are close to double the price we pay for the kids do weekly lessons at a different gym. The other gym also lets them climb for free outside lesson times, making blochaus seem even more expensive. Unfortunately this response misses the mark for me, not being inclusive for average families looking for an active activity.

Great place for bouldering, tho need to pick your time you go as it is often after work very busy.

Awesome bouldering place in Canberra. Super friendly staff, good pricing, and very well set up, including a cafe. Very chilled place to enjoy a fun activity.

I go twice a week its great fun and amazing for fitness 10/10
