Great experience at Whistler Core Gym! I visited Whistler Core Gym for climbing as a complete beginner, and I have to say I was really impressed. Tom and Rhys, who work there, were very professional and helpful. Tom took the time to guide me and my friend through the basics, and thanks to his support, I was able to push myself and climb harder routes. His motivation and approach were amazing! If you're looking to start climbing or improve your skills, I highly recommend this place. Thanks for the great experience!

The Core has always been one of my favourite local spots. I worked here for a couple of years and was a regular at the gym even before that, enjoying both the climbing and workout facilities. It’s an amazing place whether you’re looking for a job with a supportive team or just want to get a good climb or workout in. Highly recommend!

Came for the bouldering while on vacation: great setting and use of space for how small the climbing gym is; textured walls add dimension to the climbing. We have tried a few gyms in the BC area over the years while on vacation; Whistler Core Climbing is hands down our favorite! My partner noted that V0-V6 were all graded hard, but that everything beyond V6 were...not much harder than V6. I didn't mind! I am a short climber with finger injuries and appreciated that setters did not create difficulty solely with reach and crimps. That always takes creativity and I find that only the rare gym will respect the short climber (encouraging diversity). Much Appreciated!

My family went outdoor rock climbing with The Core for a half-day session (7 of us total), and Rhys and Tom made it an exceptional experience! Everyone had an amazing time, and it was one of the highlights of their trip coming over from the UK. Big shout-out to Tom for showing me and my friend the board the other day, and to Rhys for the footwork tip—absolute legends. So motivating, to say the least! Thanks a million, Em

Amazing experience. Rachel and John were so incredible and encouraging, giving my little girls the confidence to climb the walls. Also really tested my old man strength. Highly recommend as something to experience in Whistler.
