Rocky Top Climbing is a great place for anyone interested in trying out rock climbing. My wife and I stopped in on a whim on our honeymoon. The staff member that greeted us and showed us the basics was super chill and clearly knew what he was doing. The atmosphere felt very supportive of beginners. Would definitely go back!

I find the setting here to be the best in Charlottesville! Really appreciate the challenging technical aspects of the harder grades.
