ASCEND Erie - Erie (PA)

5 /5 Emily G: Fantastic day with my niece climbing at Ascend. Lots of bouldering options, which she loved. Employees are friendly & helpful. Facility is clean and well cared for. Other patrons were nice as well!

5 /5 Natalie K: What a great addition to Erie, PA! I’ve been to Ascend a couple of times, and the staff always makes me feel welcome. As for those without any experience, dont fret, the staff will guide you through the whole process and get you climbing in no time. Gear (shoes, harnesses for auto-belay, and chalk bags) are provided for an additional charge. They also offer a variety of gym classes, yoga sessions, and summer camps for kids. Definitely a great spot to get your workout in, hang out with friends and family, or host a private party!

5 /5 Stephen Wittuck: I took my 7 year old step daughter and she had a blast! The staff was very kind, welcoming and did a great job getting us ready and comfortable to climb. Amanda was so patient and kind while teaching us the ropes, while Nick did a fantastic job showing us the facility. The space was very clean and they had some awesome promotions going on this month. I really look forward to coming back again soon!

5 /5 Samantha Mikowski: Staff is so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The facility is clean and the environment is so chill and comfortable. Everyone was so nice and willing to step in and help us and show us new things. People cheer you on and encourage you. They offer a lot of programs you can get yourself or kids involved in. The yoga studio and gym are a great added bonus. Will definitely be coming back!

5 /5 Heather Cass: I have walked/run past the climbing gym since it opened and kept saying I wanted to try it. Finally went on Saturday with a running girlfriend and my daughter and we had a great time. As first-timers, its easy to feel intimidated in a new situation with regulars, but the staff at AscendErie made us feel comfortable and showed us all the ropes (pun intended). We started with the boulder wall and quickly learned climbing was going to be a challenge! It was HARD, but fun. Our arms were shaking after an hour. Definitely an upper body workout. Much more fun that lifting weights!
