    Our kiddo started climbing at Rocknasium when she was 4 in the Kids Class on weekends. We absolutely love it! The staff and kids' coaches are super positive and engaging while also instilling safe climbing habits. We recently had an amazing experience with one of their weekend/youth program coaches. Thanks for being such a positive environment for youth in Davis and helping our kiddo love rock climbing.

    Family fun!! This was my first time climbing. I must say it's fun and challenging. My children are 9 and 4years old so I used the auto ropes. We climbed for hour and 30 before my youngest tapped out and wanted to have lunch. We will be back because we had blast. Great service

    Great gym, but too many kids.
    Costco H.

    Great staff, good music, fun routes, and relatively cheap membership. Took away two stars due to the amount of young children that swarm the gym: 1) Want to use the gym during the summer time? Good luck, because they close half the gym for their kid summer camp. 2) Want to use the gym during the weekend mornings? Good luck, because they have birthday parties that usually end up with kids running around everywhere. 3) Avoid weekends and summer days? Good luck, parents bring children here and treat it like Chuck E. Cheese, letting them run free. Even though children are supposed to be supervised, they rarely are, leading to frustrating/dangerous situations. 4) Want to just hangboard or do some strength exercises? Good luck, you'll likely be surrounded by screaming kids who are being rappelled over the boulder overhang (which is closed for members, kids only!). I love this place, but it's frustrating having only half the gym available while being a monthly paid member.

    Even after many, many years of being in business, Rocknasium continues to stay true to its roots: awesome climbing routes, friendly staff and a super fun environment for all ages. It's a must-stop destination in Davis!

    My boyfriend purchased a Living Social deal for us a long time ago but never got around to using it. He saw that the expiration date is Dec 31st and was like, oh man we better use it now! The voucher consisted of a belay lesson, rental shoes and day pass. Great offer! (I saw that yelp offers a similar deal for $15) We came on a Friday afternoon and it wasn't that busy. There were only a few other climbers there but they were on different parts of the gym so it didn't effect our experience much. I can see this place getting really crowded and how that can pose as a 'problem'. Climbing is harder than it looks. Rita was the one that gave us our belay lesson and she was very thorough. I was able to belay my boyfriend as he was climbing and vice versa. I climbed the wall about 4-5 times and I was tired afterwards. A great workout! We are actually really digging this and regretted not using the vouchers earlier. He was talking about signing up for membership but we shall see ;)

    Just a small fraction of the gym!

    I absolutely love this place!!! Was feeling a little scared to try out rock climbing but I was finally persuaded to do it and I'm so glad I did! Staff members are really welcoming. There are plenty of walls but I do think this gym is on the smaller end for rock climbing gyms. Depending on level their routes are challenging and really work you physically and mentally. You will definitely have routes to boulder! There are a few auto belays which are extremely fun and convenient if you don't go with a partner! I recommend going with a group and getting trained to belay other climbers! It makes it more fun and engaging to practice team work! Highly recommend!

The gym is unique in terms of the layout and structure, however, that does not compensate for the neglect that the owners have with the place. The fans are very high powered, but you can't really feel the air due to lack of cleaning and the amount of dust that has accumulated from the months or years of not cleaning them. Toilets are consistently breaking so there are times where there will be one stall available for a full gym and takes almost 2 weeks to fix at a time. paper towels in the bathroom have always been lacking as well. The roof is also caving in due to water leaks in the cardio room, which is very hazardous and the consistently have to move machines around to avoid someone getting seriously injured. Their yoga mats look like they have never been changed before and they are the point where they mostly torn and disgusting. Overall, for the price, you are paying for a gym that is neglected by owners who refused to keep up and do minimum work in order to have as much as possible I would highly not recommend this gym to anyone whatsoever. Don't believe me? Go see so for yourself.
