Uprising

Small space called Bloclands for the kids. Slides are cool but figure the area can get crowded pretty easily with only a few kids. Great place to get kids used to bouldering. Nearby Cafe serves pizza and coffee.

Great space, full of interesting routes. I'd definitely get a membership if I lived here.The warmup/gym section looked well organised and the induction process was smooth. Staff were friendly and left you to it if you know what you're doing.Would love to check the yoga space out, and the dining area looked like a great space to do a bit of work too. Visited on a Friday early afternoon, so the car park was pretty full, but still managed to park my Transit, which is great to be able to do in a city!

This place is awesome. Very cool facility with an awesome vibe. Brought my autistic 9yo son here today after pre-arranging an intro session with the assistant manager, Todd. He had a fantastic time and Todd was excellent, very patient and very encouraging. He really took the time to explain the rules and make sure that my son fully understood his instructions. My son is dying to come back and I am considering a membership for myself too. Can't recommend them highly enough!!

Really really really would recommend it if you are looking for a proper climbing wall in NZ.I was recommended Uprising from a friend who had travelled to NZ from the UK like I am. They said it was the best wall in NZ and so far I would agree.The setting was varied and interesting, I can't speak for anything over v5/6c as I haven't climbed in 3 months but the effort made to keep the low grades entertaining was nice. There were a few low percentage moves above big holds/volumes which is never my favourite thing but I didn't feel unsafe.The staff member who greeted us was super friendly and let us know everything we needed too. The showers/toilets were nice too.All around a great wall. Will be back for sure.

Very nice climbing gym with all the amenities, plus the cafe smelled of delicious pizza. Was pretty busy but people were great at taking turns on the wall which gave you just enough rest for the next try. Still an epic location, lota of new climbs this time around.

Coming from overseas. Staff were friendly, routes were great. Not a bad experience at all, but everything is super grubby, everything, holds feel like they haven’t been cleaned for months, bathrooms were grubby, airflow needs a bit of TLC. Could use a step up for sure to bring it above average.

So much fun!Early evening it was super busy, but around 08:30 it was a lot quieter.Really good climbing walls, with a nice diversity of levels.Car park isn’t big, so had to park on the road turning left.

BECAREFUL of losing your chalk bags, brushes and small accessories. Its a great place but i've noticed quite a bit of stealing around the area and inside the facility. Even with your name on the item, there is quite a bit of missing" items if you leave it unattended

Spacious gym with varying degrees of difficulty. $20 for a day pass, and that also gets you access to the weightlifting area. Different deal in the cafe every day. On Mondays, only $6 for smoothies. The green one is yum!
