Personal Rating: I give this gym a V11 rating.

I love the variety of climbing this gym offers and the unique features such as the machinery in the bouldering area, the lovely cafe, and the outdoor climbing area. This gym has a lot of space and offers something for everyone. The staff is very helpful and friendly, especially with new climbers and foreign visitors. This is one of the best climbing communities I’ve seen and I wish I could climb here all the time.

Overall, I loved this gym and I have very little critique for it. I would recommend this gym to anyone who is in Prague and wants to have a diverse climbing experience with chances to try challenging and unique top rope, lead, and boulder routes.
