Übergrippen Indoor Climbing Crag - Denver

Nick Davis

I’ve been going here for a few months now and so I think I have a good feel for the place. I boulder, so I cannot speak for the top rope or lead sections of the gym (which make up the majority of the space, and is the primary focus). The setting is great: frequent but not too often that my projects are wiped, the weight room is solid and has basically everything you would need, the staff are fantastic (they bought more plates upon my request, or at least after I asked), and they have community events if you’re into that. My only gripe, which lowers it from a 5 to a 4 star, is how busy the bouldering wall gets with kids. I have a standard workweek and so can only climb after 5ish. By then, the bouldering area is filled with kids from some sort of club or camp the gym runs. There’s been times I’ve gone to climb and saw the 30 some kids and just decided to lift because it was too hectic and so forth. The staff is courteous and considerate about it, but it plainly is what it is. This isn’t an issue at odder hours, or sometimes on the weekends, typically. Overall, I’m enjoying the gym and would give it a 4 to 4.5. And would highly recommend earbuds if you decide to climb when the bouldering wall is filled with kids lol

Such a cool gym and the folks up front were wonderful with kids I have a 3 and 6 yo). They did a great job showing us and the kids the ropes (literally and figuratively)...and we were off. It wasn't crazy crowded. And we will absolutely do this again!!

It’s overall a great gym. The staff are fantastic and there are so many autobelays to choose from! I got in for free my first time because I was considering employment which was a very nice experience. But when I can back, I didn’t realize that it meant that I would not be able to go on someone’s guest pass ever again. I drove to climb with a friend around 7pm and thought I’d be able to use one of there’s. I just moved here and I’m still looking for a gym to commit to. I’m also on a budget so the unexpected $25 I had to spend made me feel bitter towards the gym especially because I had never used anyone’s guest pass at that gym before. If I had known I had to pay I would have come earlier in the day so I could have really gotten my money’s worth. Rock climbing is already a widely inaccessible sport financially, why make it harder on people to get started? Additionally, people trying to decide which gym they want to join need more than one visit to be sure, especially if they are especially budget cautious with start up costs involved. If I were to become a member, I would want the freedom to use my guest passes in any many I choose. Now, I’m a solution oriented person. If these businesses are being impacted financially, maybe they could try adjusting the policy so that you can only go 3 times on a guest pass or something like that. That seems like a reasonable amount of times for a person to make a decision on whether or not they want to join. So again, overall, this is one of the best gyms I have been to in the area but I wish people could use guest passes a couple more times before making the decision to commit every month.
