Shaker Rocks is the largest indoor climbing facility in Northeast Ohio, featuring 40 ft. high walls and nearly 14,000 sf of climbing. It serves families, serious climbers, and new adventurers in the unique, walkable Van Aken District. The facility is extremely nice with a modern feel, very clean, and well-maintained. It offers a lot of top rope routes, a great bouldering section with a lot of variety within difficulties, several lead routes, and autobelays. New routes are created fairly often. The staff is extremely helpful, friendly, welcoming, and kind. While some note the presence of lots of little kids with minimal supervision, which can get loud, others find it always a great experience. Some climbers feel the bouldering problems are all too comp-like and note the Kilter board has limitations. Overall, it is a clean and fun facility within walking distance of shops and restaurants, highly recommended for those interested.
By far the stiffest bouldering grades at a gym I've been to. Love it.

Grace made my experience so great! She was very patience and supportive. Lily, Dylan, and Carmen were also very kind when I checked in. Will be returning!

Friendly environment. Tough grades! Loved it here. It was about a 40 minute drive for me but I would totally go again.
