    Top view of rock wall
    Juliana P.

    Super excited that my friend brought me out to climb at Hangar 18! I really enjoyed the environment, the people, and the music!!! Hangar 18 is a great place to workout, spend some quality time with friends, challenge yourself, try something new, and/or clear your mind! They have many different levels of intensity for bouldering and an extensive rock wall. I will definitely be returning.

    In response to everyone saying that the customer service sucks, I just wanted to say that the way the employees operate is reflective of the community that Threshold (the gym Hangar bought out and converted) fostered. At the "old" gym, you would literally just walk up to the desk, tell the employees what you needed, and then you'd be on your way. Everyone was a regular and comfortable with each other so there wasn't a huge need for any questions to be answered or anything. I'm sure that with the transition, management and training have been addressed and they are all working to get everything up to par. That being said, I'm still a fan of the gym itself. Clean enough for climbing, good size, well-lit, decent weight/fitness room, and a little place upstairs for watching TV. The employees are actually really friendly if you get to know them, too. Also really great: free lockers and you can bring food inside. Be still my heart. Took 1 star off of my Threshold review because they got rid of the public wifi, there's still no water fountain, and now its over crowded with the other Hangar people (I'll get used to it). But yeah. Okay place for climbing but the mood changed.

    Great for all ages.

    The business has no sensitivity to its clients and guests. Overpriced. Cancelling membership is a challenge and management is not helpful.

    It's much smaller than the main hangar 18, more bouldering than sport climbing but it's pretty good.

Do not drive to the climbing area, the Riverside Police will ticket you. 5 star sport climbing, 2/3 star area. It's an old quarry in an urban area, litter, dirt bikes, and graffiti will mar your experience. A short approach with a fantastic selection of 5.11's-5.13's. Rock climbing is never completely safe, but the area is maintained and was developed with safety as a priority. This is not an old school crag with long run outs. If you are an aspiring rock star, this is an excellent area to hone your skills. If you are a beginning climber, climb in Slab City and Schoolhouse Rock areas, these areas were made to help you get started.

Even though I bought a 70 meter rope just in case I did head out there, I was still wondering what it would be like. Ah, it's fine. The hike in is a little strewn with what looks like a badly broken apart mattress, and there is some graffiti on the rock, but otherwise the place is basically one long wall with lots of climbing. It is shaded in the morning with the sun hitting it around mid day, so be prepared for the heat of the IE to come bearing down on you. The climbs themselves are pretty good, though I have only done a few so far. There is loose rock, but in this day and age, you should be wearing a helmet when you are belaying (if not when climbing as well). The routes are all sport, with chains or rings set up for anchors and bolts placed fairly close together. I never thought I was running anything out when leading.

Coming into the parking lot, I'd say be careful driving past the gate; the gate isn't secured properly to the cement on the floor, so it pops up, making it hazardous for your tires. The workers here are very chill, just like any other gym, though climbers are very chill in general. They're very helpful and friendly if you ever need them. They keep the gym very clean and the bathrooms well stocked. They are also always quick to notice you and provide support if needed. The routes here are a range of difficulties. The basic routes here feel slightly more difficult than other gyms, helping you build your core. They reset the walls on a weekly basis, which encourages you to come back. On the weekdays, it's ridiculously packed where people don't wait their turn in the walls. Lots of newcomers and people who come after work. If you like climbing freely, wait for weekends in the evenings!

The prices are fairly high for a gym membership, but they have great deals that occur during holidays and selective occasions which are an opportunity to bring a friend or group once in a while. I've made fond memories climbing with friends, time after work by myself with earphones, or by randomly engaging conversation and having a friendly conversation - exploring the depth of indoor climbing and finding out how to solve different climb routes makes this hobby an activity worth trying. (be ready to rip some finger skin if you're starting out) If you want to get into indoor climbing, this is a recommended place to start. The highlight I love about this place is the staff, they for sure work hard to keeping the place clean, keen on accommodation, and are happy to chat regarding information and questions. Shout out to Drake!

Well, the 30 min class turned out to be only a 5 min introduction to the rules of the rock climbing place and the only technique taught was how to fall. The instructor hastily dismissed the kids and said "Have fun". That was basically it. i thought the class would cover more bouldering techniques. I have just pulled up the class description (see pic). Had I seen this while we were there, I would've spoken to a manager about this. This is not right at all. The instructor only spent 5 min with our kids. There was only so much the girls could do on their own with that inadequate 5 minute "lesson". It could have been a fun playdate if they were given more instructions so they could've done more than climbing up 3-4 steps on just the 2 easy routes. 1 star and not likely to return. You did not deliver what was promised and wasted our time and 25 bucks each. Poor business practice. Thumbs down.
