New Jersey Rock Gym in Fairfield New Jersey is a fantastic place for rock climbers of all levels.

When I first started there a couple years ago I had zero experience but since I had purchased a starter set from REI I wanted to put it to use.

The staff will take you through an instruction round explaining the different types of climbs whether it's bouldering using the auto belay etc. speaking of the staff what a great group of young kids work there! extremely supportive and knowledgeable, do not hesitate to ask for assistance or even some " beta " to help you get up the wall.

Another great aspect of this place, Is the frequency of which routes get changed out. They're always up there long enough for you to work a route solve a problem and make it to the top but they get changed out often enough that it's always fresh and it really keeps the place interesting.

Since they expanded, they're offering more day camp and party opportunities for kids and additionally, they have yoga classes climbing classes and other special nights available. They opened up a small cafe which is a great little spot for the parents to hang while their kids are climbing. It's also where the chess boards are. They are another great little extra feature that you certainly don't find in most gyms.

There is a small sized workout area in case you are interested in adding some conventional weight lifting to your climbing workout along with some cardio equipment.

Obviously the focus is on climbing.

The hours are great if you like late night climbing. Do not expect them to open very early but early enough for kids lol

My boyfriend and I visited this gym for the first time with no prior experience. While the facility itself is decent, it didn’t feel very beginner-friendly. We were told we’d receive an orientation with a video, but there was no video, and the orientation was shorter than the time it took to complete the waivers. 5-8 minutes at most. You’d think the orientation would at least be a little longer than that considering the danger of the activity if not done right. The staff member giving the tour seemed to rush through what she was saying it was hard to hear her due to the larger crowd that night. She may have been new so I don’t blame her. We also had to return to the front desk to ask for the harnesses we paid for, as they weren’t given to us initially. Most importantly, we weren’t clearly told which equipment or courses were off-limits for beginners during the “orientation”. Halfway through, a staff member informed us we were using equipment meant only for experienced climbers—again, something we had not been warned about. This could have led to a serious accident. Overall, while the gym isn’t bad, I wouldn’t recommend it to beginners based on our experience.

I was able to check them out on a Tuesday night at 10pm, they were open unlike other climbing gyms around and offering $11 ladies night! Also they have student day on Monday as well as BOGO on Wednesday, great promos for people who'd like to climb without membership commitments. Although I wish they were more flexible on monthly memberships. Competitors around them offer $90 monthly no commitment membership plans.
I was able to check out some of the auto belays and to my surprise they were harder than any other climbing gym in NJ, turns out their goal to make indoor climbing a transition to outdoor climbing and they are imitating outdoor leveling instead of creating 5.10s that feel like 5.5. I actually struggled with even 5.7s and I'm a 5.9 in any other gym in NJ! It definitely introduces you to new challenges, you need the core strength on top of finger and arm strength.
Overall great location and has a lot to offer, will definitely will be coming back.

I recently had the opportunity to check out New Jersey Rock Gym, and I couldn’t be more impressed! The rock climbing walls are challenging yet fun, with a variety of routes for all skill levels. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, always ready to offer tips and encouragement. The atmosphere is welcoming, with a great community vibe that makes it easy to feel at home, whether you’re a seasoned climber or a complete beginner.

I also attended their self-defense class, and it was equally amazing. The instructor was clear, patient, and made the techniques easy to understand. I really appreciated how they focused on practical skills that I could use in real-life situations. The class not only gave me confidence but also taught me how to stay calm and focused under pressure. It was empowering, and I left feeling stronger both mentally and physically. Highly recommend both the rock gym and the self-defense classes for anyone looking to get fit, learn something new, and be part of an awesome community!

I’m mixed on NJRG. After moving between Colorado and California climbing for 6 years, I wanted to find a gym in my hometown. The mark of a good rock gym is often one with a “sliding scale” of difficulty, which I find NJRG lacks at times. The climbs are immensely more difficult than any gym i’ve been to around the country, even at just a V1. I would not often consider this gyms routes friendly to either the intermediate or beginner.

I’d personally love more of a focus on technical, inventive climbs, as opposed to just raw, finger-based strength on 90% of the more difficult routes.

Maybe this is just an issue of East vs West Coast climbing style - i’m not sure.

That being said, the staff are A++. No concerns there!

Edit: I appreciate the response! Especially in regard to “vanity” grading, which perhaps i’ve been encountering. East and West coast climbing is also vastly different, so it’s possible i’ve been having difficulty growing accustom to it. Recently i’ve noticed NJRG climbs feel even more difficult, which led to this review. I’ve adjusted the review a bit, and i’d be happy to meet with route-setters. This is my home gym, and I plan to continue coming. Hopefully it does make me a much more competent outdoor climber, as you say.

Great staff and facility. The setting can be a bit more stiff than some other gyms in the area, but is more reflective of what you might encounter outside at some of the local NJ & NYC crags. The climbs at every skill level are fun and challenging in different ways, and offer opportunities for cool movements from kneebars and dynos on overhang to small crimps and slopers on technical slab. The free monthly guest pass I get as a member is great for bringing friends who are new to climbing

I would highly recommend the NJ Rock Gym for climbing and parties!! Thank you for a wonderful and fun experience for the second time!

Great bouldering. I'd go here over a gravity vault for bouldering any day. Plenty of varieties for beginner to experienced climbers. The top rope isn't as great with shorter walls and less variety compared to a gravity vault. It's nice that there is a café within the place. All the staff I've interacted with have been very friendly and helpful. I've brought a lot of friends around so their guest passes for first time visitors is a great part of the membership.

This was our first visit to this location after reading wonderful reviews and deciding to give it a try. Unfortunately, we encountered some issues with the check-in process, particularly with the waivers for kids under 18. While the staffs were very helpful, we were disappointed with one of the trainers she seemed inconsiderate to kids struggling with the climbing. We won't be returning, and the facility could use some cleaning. The place smells like feet.

Friendly staff & great deals! We went on Wednesday during buy one get one free pass day. I had fun on all the routes & my boyfriend had a blast on the dry tool wall (would be sick if they put DT routes on the overhang). Some of the grading was all over the place but that made it fun (I.e. some V3’s were a jug ladders while others felt sand bagged) My only complaint was the lack of ventilation, I had to step out several times to get air because it was incredibly hot & stuffy in there, to the point it was unenjoyable and I was slipping off holds.

Yesterday was our first time here, I was looking for a good place to take my son and my nephew nearer to the nephew's home then our local. I called ahead to try to get an idea how many auto belays they had to know how much of our time we'd spend belaying each other. What I didn't expect was how much bouldering there was. There's some nice routes auto belayed or top roped and an interesting lead wall. But the whole center of the place is bouldering problems of many levels. The boys were very impressed. They even have an inclined cave you can try to solve the roof of, up to a different bouldering area (I took the stairs). I even highly recommend the torta place next door when we were ready for a break. Though I was done climbing after that lunch. Now I wish this place was closer to my house.

editing my review as I approach a year at the gym:

This gym is dope. The facility is clean, safe, and has recently expanded. They added a new section with a long top rope wall, a "highball" (relative to the gym) bouldering island, and a cafe with a coffee shop.

It's set to continue expanding in the future.

The staff are all super friendly and nice. The community in general is really the main reason to climb here. It's a super welcoming place, and I recommend anyone fence-sitting to give it a shot.

We were shown around by Connor, he was fun to talk to, easy to get along with and just in general very helpful for this being our first time to this gym. The cave is one of the cooler features I've seen for bouldering, and worth a trip here for just that. This gym has a great selection of differently designed bouldering walls that really encapsulate many different wall types. Plus the new addition is a welcomed one with their cool high ball type boulder wall. All in all I would definitely come back when we are in the area.

I've had prior experience with rock climbing and belaying, so I decided to bring a friend along for the adventure. Despite the noticeable presence of idle staff members, it took an unsatisfactory 30 minutes to even start our activity. The majority of the staff appeared disoriented and dispassionate about their roles, a fact that worsened our enthusiasm considerably.

My friend, from France, was accustomed to different climbing rules in his hometown. He was reprimanded for the positioning of his hand by the instructor, which he promptly corrected. However, despite adhering to the instruction, we were unjustly prohibited from climbing. This came as a surprise, especially considering we had already settled the full cost for a day pass and the necessary equipment.

Regrettably, I cannot endorse this poorly-managed fitness center, which I consider to be far from professional.

This gym is a gem in the community. Tons of routes / climbs for different skill levels and interests. Well maintained space and equipment — but beyond that the staff is SO friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, and not in a disingenuous “smile at work” way but they truly exude “I love my time here”. If you’re considering this for a party or event, go for it. My child just had a birthday here (believe me I wasn’t sure how a gaggle of elementary kids could be managed) and I need to commend the staff - several check ins to see if we needed anything, super friendly and fun with the children, and the full size kitchen is such an unexpected asset. Now for the most important part for me personally: it’s clean. This place isn’t regular clean, it’s clean-clean. I’m hyper aware about cleanliness but other parents actually texted me after the party about how clean the gym was. Not only that but I witnessed party turn over where staff sanitized the surfaces and mopped the floor! The overall gym and restrooms are well maintained and clean, everything is in like new condition, higher end than comparable gyms in the area. We’re going to be returning often, but wanted to give the party option a special review shoutout on top of the regular facilities. 10/10 from hostess and guests.

The place is very popular and you can meet some interesting people at this gym. The rental gear at this place can be a little on the expensive side. You're better off spending money to gain your own gear. The place is very well maintained and clean. They replace the climbs so that you're always challenging yourself with different routes up the wall. I fully recommend it for people who want to socialize and if you're in search of a good workout.

Staff is EXTREMELY kind and friendly, not to mention the owner who's a G that's been running this gym for a long time. I've only recently started going (three months give or take) but after talking to some long time climbers, I've learned enough to know that this place is, and has been run by a fantastic and caring group of people. Other climbers are quick to accept and help you, everyone here wants to see you improve and enjoy yourself. I don't have enough kind words honestly, you climb here a few weeks and you'll feel comfortable and at-home. Bathrooms, locker areas and the workout area are all clean and well-maintained. Boulders and rope routes (auto-belay, top rope, and leads that I have yet to be taught to climb) are changed constantly by skilled and knowledgeable climbers; this allows for a fresh experience every few weeks. They offer great courses to learn how to belay and lead climb. I see climbers of every age, from literal children to the elderly all enjoying themselves, being cheered on by the other members, and overall enjoying themselves. It feels like here it's you and the rest of the gym-goers versus these god dang composite rocks, I've never had a negative experience with anyone. I saw an older man today try a route that was freshly minted mere hours before he climbed it. In response to a staff member asking him what he thought of it, he simply replied:

"Pure joy"
-and he smiled.

I couldn't have summarized my experience here any better.

P.S. ~~~the music is always dope.

Staff was on point. Conner juggled assisting other customers and spotting Liam without getting flustered or frustrated. He communicated with Liam when he needed to step away and made sure to follow through with returning, never forgetting or getting distracted. When he was working with Liam, Conner was patient and motivating which made Liam feel great. Finally the music that played was as if someone ran a scan of every song I ever loved from the 90's and then played them all consecutively.

Top rope walls are super short . Staff is unhelpful and this place is nothing spectacular especially for experienced climbers. There are much better gyms in NJ . Beware that first timers will waste 45 minutes just doing their “orientation”. Needless to say we ll never come here

Laid back atmosphere at a gym with some of the best route setting around. Plenty of top rope and lead routes if you've got a belayer and a great bouldering selection plus 4 auto-belays if you don't.

The climbing wall is just right, it has everything you need for successful climbing.

This is the best and most challenging rock climbing gym I've been to in Jersey so far. I love the atmosphere and all the people that work here are so down to earth. I'm excited to get better at climbing!

This place ROCKS!!! I came in with my son and we both had a great time. There were ample climbs that both of us could do and we left with a great workout. The music and the staff were also awesome:)))!!!!!.

Best rock gym in the area. Don't even think about going to GV. This is where you go if you want to become a good climber. I've climbed at many gyms and this one is an absolute gem.

YES MA’AM!!! This place was AWESOME! I was fortunate to be there on a Friday midday, no one was there so I could go wherever I wanted and wasn’t bothered. The staff was friendly and followed orientation rules TO THE LETTER. Eileen is friendly and is clearly passionate about her job/company. The coolest feature of this place that sets it apart is the cave!!! Sooo cooool (see photos). Routes were well set/graded, autobelays are brand new so a little stiff, no big deal though. I could’ve spent 5 hours here but only spent 2 because I’m working in new shoes (ouch ouch ouch). Highly recommend, if only just for the cave.

The New Jersey Rock Gym is an awesome place to go rock climbing. Matt, Danny, and Rebecca helped my crew and I get introduced to the basics and autobelaying. The process was smooth and the instruction was super helpful, because we were climbing on our own in no time. My brother and I loved the experience so much we went back several times in the same week. They've got a huge facility with tons of routes and scaling difficulty. They even have a rock climbing tunnel cave!
Beginners might want to begin with the autobelay as it helps keep you up in the air, and when you get the hang of it, try some bouldering. I saw a little girl do some partner belay and she crushed an entire wall 3x! Really cool environment and the floors are soft so you can fall without fear of hurting something. All in all highly recommended 👌🏻. Had a great time and plan on visiting again sometime soon.

This place looks nice for me to learn, the reason I put 3 stars is why I have been sending emails for a week asking questions but no one has answered me yet, my questions are: I want to belong to a sportstaff team and for that I need a Climbing certificate, and my passion is to be in That team, please tell me how much it costs and how long the training lasts,
