Went with some girlfriends and we had a blast. The staff was friendly and helpful. Good variety of routes to climb. Nice people there climbing. We worked out in the fitness center after which was an added bonus. Give this place a try for a fun change of pace.

Great Way to get a fun exercise experience. You will work muscle 💪 you didn't know you had and challenge your skills as you learn. Very enjoyable especially with the day pass that allows you to get a meal in between all the fun. Definitely bring your littles and teens, they will all enjoy it.

Cool new North spot for Stoneage. Big gym area and electronic boulder wall!

The faucet/dryer combos at Stone Age north should not exist! The faucet and dryer are both automatic - and right next to each other, so it is very easy to trigger the dryer (spraying your dirty hand water at you) while you are still washing your hands. The dryer is also incredibly loud, terrifying every kid I know and since it is eye level with children, the hot air/grooms water will blow right in their faces! Literally the worst faucet design in the history of ever. I would not trust the engineers who designed this faucet to work at a gas station! Stone age north is a nice climbing gym - plus a decent weight room, tension, kilter, and campus board Response: knowledge of “how to use it” is not a factor when a slight variance in stance will knock your hands under the dryer sensor or place your forearm under the sensor. There should not be a learning curve for a sink - in a public restroom at a gym. Confining my hand washing movements to such a small area is not something I want to be concerned with-especially when I am trying to get chalk from under my fingernails! I also avoid using the dryer feature as much as possible; the shallowness of the sink coupled with the angle blasts the hot air right into my face! I get the idea behind the faucet/dryer combo, but the execution failed. Response 2: thank you for disabling the dryer feature!

As soon as you enter the building, it stinks of dirty feet. I understand it's a climbing gym, but as I've read below from other reviewers and stoneage response, they only clean the holds every 4 to 6 weeks minimum. Given the membership/ daily visit costs, you would be lead to believe cleanliness is not only more frequent but of more importance for the overall experience of this climbing gym. It's also much smaller than others in this price range. The bathrooms fell short, too. Out of paper towels and low on soap. I'm not happy with this experience at all.

Bouldering setting meh. Lead routes amazing. Excellent facilities both gyms. Cool AC, clean, and friendly.

This is a great climbing gym with great staff. I purchased the membership for myself and my four kids and they treat us great. Now I only wish my kids were bigger so they could belay me!

Climbing in a mask is perfectly tolerable imho 🙂

We were visiting from out of town and wanted to get some climbing in before an outdoor trip later this week. Quinn was super friendly and helpful in helping us get all set up with rental gear and showing us around the facility. It’s a big facility with bouldering, top roping, auto belays and a kid’s area. The route-setting was varied and exciting, and the atmosphere was safe and welcoming. If we lived in Albuquerque we would definitely become members— you’re lucky to have this in your city!

I have been going to Stone Age for years but only the Cutler location. The new gym is fantastic. I will definitely be splitting my time between the two gyms.

We had a great experience here! The clerks at the front desk were so helpful!!! Even the demonstration to start climbing was super helpful! (Sebastion helped us!) Clean facility, lots of fun! I will say the Stone Age on Cutler is quite bigger!

Great gym with some awesome bouldering problems. The auto belay is super fun, too. Plenty of space to walk around and plenty of problems to choose from. Overall an awesome place to go to if you're in the mood for some indoor climbing. :)

Nice, very nice. Huge space. I had not climbed indoor or outside since 2008. Went with 2 friends.

Great walls, excellent safety equipment, super friendly and helpful staff, reasonable prices. Their on-site store prices are great too, bought a harness there for cheaper than it was listed on Amazon (and got to try it on, so even better). Update some months later: we (2 parents, 3 kids) are members here and we go about twice a week. I really couldn't be happier with the gym, it's top notch!

Best climbing gym I’ve been to in four states. Great routes. Friendly staff. Big walls for sport. Cool Boulder area with nice padding. Big selection of gear to buy at their store. Yank-n-yard is a blast every year. Membership price isn’t terribly high considering you get access to member only hours, access to both gyms in town, free fitness classes, and access to everything in the gym for you to use. Internet is fast which is great if you’re listening to music while working out. It gets packed so plan accordingly. I try to avoid peak hours for a more chill and relaxed vibe. They offer all kinds of climbing classes to diversify your skill set and they even do outdoor events if you want to try your hand at climbing outdoors. They hold all kinds of events throughout the year. It’s nice you can take first timers there for free under your membership. I have taken advantage of that and have brought countless of people to try it out. Check it out! Also at both locations they have green jeans and tin can alley which is a fantastic place to get food and beer after climbing. Very convenient and super fun too.

I had a great 1st time experience with both climbing, and this business. The instructor was knowledgeable, and answered any questions I had. She was very polite. Gave me the confidence to get up there! I would definitely go back there. 5 *

Really awesome place for climbing. They offer rentals and everything you need. They also have a full workout gym for use. Had a lot of fun bouldering. And it's right next to Tin Can Alley, Had a nice beer before and after.

You ruined Tin Can Alleys view of the mountains and I will never forgive you 🤬🤬🤬

Great climbing gym with great classes. Routes are changed regularly, but not so often that you cannot project a route. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The store is well stocked.

Wow. Excellent gym. I work at a gym and have been to quite a few gyms across several states but I was genuinely impressed with Stone Age. For starters, the facility was large and clean, good sign. In the entrance area they had a wide selection of climbing shoes and gear, as well as guidebooks and literature; I’d almost say extensive, but not as much as a dedicated climbing shop - but certainly a better selection than most REI’s I’ve been to. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful when I asked about local climbing areas and ethics. My tour ended upstairs in the bouldering area and I went to check out the rooftop deck where yoga classes happen occasionally. Stellar view of the Sandias. Take note, everyone else; us climbers love them views. I also noticed the good amount of community development ‘stuff’ from crag days to the ‘Yank n Yard’ climbing competition. Always nice to see a gym get involved and help their community grow into outdoor climbing responsibly. I think they also offer outdoor guiding but I can’t be sure as I didn’t ask. I went in solo, so I was only able to go bouldering and climb on auto-belay climbs, of which there were many. The routesetting itself was thoughtful, fair and fun; good job, setting team! I especially enjoyed the comp-style ‘Petrie dish’- type area with the ungraded problems upstairs. Not a fan of scaled boulder grading but it’s not uncommon and shouldn’t cost anyone a star rating, especially with quality sets. I did notice that the autobelay routes only went up to about 5.11 and there was only one 5.12, which makes sense for auto belay, but leaves a bit to be desired if you’re ARC training on higher grade stuff or you’re without a partner. The lead and top rope routes did look really fun and there are a ton of them on varied terrain. Don’t be at all discouraged if you’re looking for autobelay climbs though, cause there are more than enough of those to keep you busy, especially for beginners and moderate climbers; lots of routes in the 5.7-5.9 range. The fitness area seemed nice, but I didn’t go in it. Bathrooms were clean. Facility is well kept. Stone Age is kind enough to offer a discounted industry pass for climbing gym employees and I’m thankful to have been able to use such a nice, state of the art gym while on the road. Hopefully the other gyms I visit in the future will be as nice as Stone Age but I think that’s going to be a difficult thing to find. **Should mention that I’m not from the Albuquerque area, but if I was, this would, without a doubt, be the gym I would get a membership at** Thanks for a great experience, Stone Age!

Wish we had more time to do some climbing. Lots of nice space to spread out the areas. Found a very cool chalk bag called Brad the hair model to take home to join Max. Great gym beside a cool place The Tim Can.

Stone Age is such an awesome gym! It's worth the drive down from Santa Fe. They've got quite a number of auto-belay stations, and fun yet challenging routes. Shoutout to Chris for being an awesome and informative instructor for my lead climbing class!

Signed up for a membership here within a week of moving to NM. Great indoor climbing gym, good route variety, always a good time.

Helpful friendly staff. Safe protocols. Looking forward to join after health is better.

My hometown gym. Friendly staff. Chill members. Lots of 40' routes. Plenty of bouldering. Uncluttered work out area with everything you want. Classes. Yoga. A team that warms up on your project. It's a climbing gym. Why are you reading reviews when you could be climbing? Online reservations required during covid.

New gym is awesome! Staff is professional and helpful. Great to see the quality stay with the growth.

Seriously great locally owned climbing gym. Excellent service, lots of space, 10/10 highly reccomend checking it out

The gym is great but the staff not so much. Very rude and hostile. Ruined my climbing experience.

Pure awesomeness!! Not better just different than the O.G.

Great staff, great gym. A good addition of height to the lead wall compared to midtown. And a kilter and tension board. Woot woot!!

Just as great as the 1st location if not better!

Interesting routes, friendly staff, and great variety of exercise options.

Awesome tall routes

notice that this place was just about to open when I went over to the new tin can Alley that's right next door. If you get a glimpse inside it looks absolutely beautiful I can't wait for it to open. due to the are you lacking in the fun things to do category this was an awesome decision to be made by whoever owns this company. This area definitely needs more places like this that gives people the opportunity to go out and do something fun and proactive as well as entertaining. I myself do not a rock climber because I am afraid of heights but if I ever got over my fear definitely would give this place to go.

Actually meant to put all 5 stars on my first review! Terrifying for me to use the auto belay but my daughter LOVED IT! Definitely going back soon.

My kids had a blast! We will be back

This gym has great climbing and a great staff! I try to make it here whenever I can! They also have state of the art work out equipment which has been a real treat to use!

Great climbs. The flat walls really challenged me and my style while the angled walls were perfect for me. The walls themselves are quite tall but the crash pads are high quality provide soft falls.

Very fun and good place to go

First time. They were very nice and helpful, explained how to use the equipment and made it very easy. Lots of different types of walls and paths to climb. Also has a little gym. I'll go back and maybe try they're new person deal and check out some classes. Sounds like a good deal.

Always fun and friendly place!

New facility constructed in 2020. Conveniently located next to restaurants and bars in Tin Can Alley complex. Easy access from I-25 freeway going east in Alameda Boulevard.

I've been climbing with Stone Age for years and I highly recommend it. It is clean, well maintained, and they rotate the routes frequently. The yoga classes are also great!
