Tufas is a nice homely climbing gym. I enjoy coming here to have a good session. The routes here are really powerful and are great for overall training :
Excellent gym, very clean, friendly staff, sliding scale prices are a nice touch. Interesting route setting, even lower grade climbs are fun. Feels like each climb is meant to teach you something rather than just throwing up some jugs and calling it V0-2. Many harder climbs that looked interesting but I am not capable of those at this point to test them out. Visiting from RI and glad I made the trek up to this little hidden gem outside the city
Great bouldering routes... easy to challenging. Friendly staff and good crowd.
Great bouldering gym. Never boring, the professional bouldering staff changes the problems often and they're always different to the previous ones; I don't know how they keep coming up with new ones. The owners seem to really care about the place and the staff is welcoming and friendly.
Tufas was definitely one of the best climbing gyms I've been to. They had plenty of space for climbing while still being distant enough to feel safe. The place was spotless and clean from top to bottom. They offer chalk and have amazing customer service and the prices aren't bad at all. They offer not only all levels of climbing, but also a gym for weight lifting as well, and the cherry on top, a ping pong table for fun, what's not to love?! The best part is the amount of cubbies they have for placing your stuff while climbing which is great. Keep up the great work Tufas and enjoy climbing everyone, hang in there!
Great gym! The staff was friendly and helpful. My wife and I took the "intro to bouldering" class and were lucky to get Daniela as our instructor. She was very informative and skilled. She encouraged us to get down the fundamentals as she familiarized us with the gym's features. I highly recommend the class if you haven't been here yet... and if you haven't... get your butt here!
Been climbing for a few years and tufas is definitely the best bouldering gym I've been to. Great variety of route types and difficulties. Friendly and chill staff, and reasonable prices.
I’ve been here I would say about ten times now. I love this place more than anything. The staff is always super friendly, even all the other climbers are really nice too. The rock climbing is all bouldering, so if you’re looking to be strapped into a harness this isn’t the place for you haha. The wall might seem intimidating at first, and learning how to fall is a little nerve racking and can be hard to get used to, but it’s one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life. This place is good for beginners, intermediate climbers, and expert climbers. It’s a great workout for anyone no matter the size. I’ve brought people big and small here, and they always have a blast. It’s a full body workout so be prepared to work muscles you didn’t even know you had lmao. They even have a little gym section in the back if you wanted to workout at anytime during your climb. This place is also very LGBTQ friendly, I’ve met some awesome people here. If you get too tired during your climb, they also have a ping pong table.
Came for a day trip, the building is nice, definitely well cared for, pretty clean. Nicely ventilated with the open from garage door and aesthetically pleasing. TONS of wall styles, was a huge fan of that. One of our biggest issues was the grading felt...inconsistent? Some problems labelled 2-4 barely felt like 1s, some 2-4 felt like 5s. It was almost as if each setter did their own thing without test running each others problems. Could have just been that setting but as a guest, it was peculiar. The problem were decent though it did feel like it was missing...something. Theres so much blank space I'd have loved to see more unique problems roof traverse across from your moonboards? So much potential but I chalked that up to the fact that they still had a competition set up. Also location kinda was a bummer for us. We drove a bit over and hour and when we got there we realized the gym itself is gorgeous, but its really not in the best part of town, and parking is EXTREMELY limited so we had to park a bit further than we'd have liked given the area. All in all it's a beautiful gym, but a combo situation means we likely won't be taking a day trip here again sadly.
This is a very good bouldering gym. They use a bracket type of grading system instead of each individual grade being used. They have decently high walls, and a large section of overhung cave style walls. One of the main points of this gym is their moon and kilter board, both of which are programmable. Along with the comprehensive training area this is an excellent gym to check out. If you are anywhere near it, you would be missing out not hitting Tufas up.
