I have gone to Upper Limits multiple times now, and every time I have had a blast (and a good workout). The bouldering area has routes for all skill levels. There are rental climbing shoes you can use. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. I look forward to when I can go here again.

Great bouldering gym! Lots of route options but not so many that the walls feel cluttered. Would be even better if they had some short auto belay routes, but definitely a great fun if you are looking to boulder or do a general climbing training session

A place for bouldering and kids. Not much wall climbing. Great climbing games for kids.

This particular location has Wacky Walls specifically geared for kids. The staff is very helpful in going over everything for new climbers. I always get great customer service when visiting. My child always has a great time here. Its great physical activity on a rainy/cold day. I highly recommend this for any child.

I am an avid climber and this is the perfect gym for getting your bouldering workouts in! Tons of routes, great staff and an amazing children’s climbing room! I took my daughter here when I was visiting my parents for her first climb and she loved every second there! A great place to introduce kids to the sport and a great place for advanced climbers as well!

Fantastic staff and fun place. Very clean. Id to rock climb and love getting back into it. The environment there is friendly from staff to members. Fun to Boulder and get a work out without having to stare at a treadmill. When you take breaks between runs you can watch how someone else tackles one. There was a great member there that showed my family and a different approach to a run and it was great just fun and helpful. I love a mental and physical challenge. Thanks upper limits 😊

I really like this climbing gym. The staff are super friendly and helpful and the routes are challenging but still sendable. They change the routes often enough to keep it interesting but not so often that you dont get a chance to master a problem youve been working. I highly recommend this climbing gym.

I love this facility! It’s great for bouldering. Nunz was a wonderful instructor and explained everything super clearly. I felt safe top rope climbing with him there even though it was my partner’s first time belaying!

If you are into bouldering more than top rope, this is your place! Theres even a room dedicated for the little ones called Wacky Walls which is fun (keep in mind, theres an extra cost)!Would definitely come back here again!

This place is a blast and not too pricey! Took my boys (5 and 6 yrs) to the Wacky Wall room on a whim the other day. They played for 2 hours and when time was up, they did not want to leave! The room is the perfect size to make it easy to keep your eye on a few kiddos at the same time😊. It was very safe and their were several employees walking around helping out and just watching. I also found several deals for them on Groupon.

We have 6 kids and all of them (that can walk) loved this place! There are various types of walls to climb in the kid zone that accommodate the differing athletic abilities as well as comfort with heights. Next time we go we plan to let the older kids try the area outside of the kids zone as more of a challenge. The kids have been asking constantly when we can go back! We are all excited for our next visit to Upper Limits in Chesterfield.

Our group had a great time at the Chesterfield Upper Limits. The staff was friendly and communicated clearly, then left us to appreciate the space. Some of the climbers were obviously regulars who gave our group tips from time to time. We had a blast.

Beware: climbing is a very addictive sport, and the climbs here are extremely satifying.The staff are all super nice and helpful, and they arent too pricey.

Review №15

An excellent service staff at this location, they are knowledgeable and polite. There are a variety of bouldering routes here. Beginners through very advanced climbers will be able to enjoy it. Im very new to bouldering and there were several routes that even I could do. There is a fitness area upstairs with machines, free weights and many different finger and hang boards. Its an excellent training area. There is an area for children to climb as well, although for an added cost and climb time is paid for by the hour. Locker rooms are clean and spacious. There are some sport climbing routes, but there are short and mediocre. No lead climbing routes. The Maryland Heights location is great for sport and lead climbing. The only thing that is super annoying is the amount of birthday parties that are scheduled here on the weekends. It gets super loud, hard for my kids to get a good climb in, and just crowded. Call ahead if thats an issue for you.

My first time in a rock climbing gym and had a great time. Very professional and helpful staff and well designed facilities and climbing routes. Nice strength-building gym on the top floor as well. Highly recommend for anyone that wants to try rock climbing or already enjoys it.

Great time climbing in the wacky walls room. This is ideal for kids from about 7-12. Younger kids will need a bit of someones help to attach and detach from each wall.

The staff was a little unorganized getting checked in but overall trip ws good.My 7 year old loved the Wacky Walls section which is geared toward kids.My 11 year old loved it all. We will make many more trips.I will say the adult / larger section is all bouldering they do not have any harnessed rock climbs here.

We just took our 10 year old son and 8 year old daughter. The gym is very clean, appropriately priced, and the staff is amazing. We did an hour on the Wacky Wall and that was perfect for the kids. We are thinking of planning a birthday party soon. Faith helped us out and she was sweet and informative. Definitely will be visiting again.

This place is seriously fantastic! We had a kids birthday party here and from start to finish it was a great experience. Everyone was super friendly and our party helpers (or whatever they’re called!) made things SO much easier! The wacky walls room felt really safe and the kids had a blast! We could have stayed longer! Everything was clean and the party room was surprisingly really cool. We’re planning on going back very soon!

Love this location for bouldering! Staff is welcoming and knowledgeable! During our last visit, Brian M took exceptional care of us! He understood sizing for the shoes, safety protocols, and even gave us tips on technique to get started. Couldn’t ask for more friendly service. Great spot to get a full body workout! Highly recommend!

Everyone was very nice, and the place was very clean. However, there is a bar at the top of the climbing wall and my partner hit her head pretty hard on it when she got up there. We then had to take a trip to the ER where she was diagnosed with a mild concussion. This is incredibly dangerous as there is also no railing and she almost fell backwards. We will probably not be attending this location again.

The staff here is very awesome. They were helpful and patient. The venue itself is really cool with all the amenities one would need while adventuring in there. A workout area, lockers, various beverages and a neat area that looked for the younger ones! Definitely a must visit if youre into a different adventure or just love rock climbing.

We recently had a belaying class at the Chesterfield location and Faith was our teacher. She was very knowledgeable and was patient with us through the whole class. She was very thorough and talked us through every small detail. She made us laugh and we had a GREAT time!! We WILL be back! So much fun!

What a fun way to entertain a 6 and 7 year old. First time there. Staff was friendly and always there to help if needed. The kids had such a good experience and they are looking forward to our next visit! Very easy to keep an eye on two kids at a time! Spent 2 hours there at a reasonable price with a groupon! Thank you staff for a great afternoon!!!

This was my first indoor gym climbing experience. I found the staff to be very friendly and my instructor (Tyler Stender) was very knowledgeable, passionate and helpful. It was intimidating for me but he was able to guide me through the gym in a way that would allow me to be successful. I really enjoyed the experience and would highly reccomend it!! I will need a lot more practice so I plan to come back often. Thank you!!

This place was a lot of fun. This was me and my daughters first time here and the employees made everything easy and fun for us. Prices were very reasonable and equipment seemed in great shape and brand new. They showed us and explained everything in detail and were there to answer any questions we had. Towards the end the guy helping us a majority of the time gave us some coupons for the next time. We will definitely be back again.

This has been the first year we got the membership. We were a little apprehensive about spending that much money for a three year old. When we arrive for the first time are this location the staff was very accommodating and patient. They took good care of us and now I have no reservations about purchasing the membership for our whole family.

Great place to practice or learn a skill for gripping, climbing, and more. Big place so plenty of room for all. Even the little kids have an area they can be in to challenge themselves! Head over there today!

Review №84

BEST. KIDS. CLIMBING. EVER. Like in the history of ever. Pricey, but SO worth it if you’ve got kiddos bouncing off the wall. You don’t need an adult to belay kids (manage the ropes), but anyone younger than about 6 will need help clipping in & out (attaching their harness to & from the ropes), so plan your adult ratios accordingly. Tricky, but not impossible to keep a non-harnessed toddler entertained while older siblings climb. It gets busy at peak times and they cap how many climbers they’ll allow, so call ahead to schedule your slot!

Great Climbing Gym. Cool routes that challenge the mind and the body. Friendly staff that helps direct you to a fun experience no matter what your level of experience is.

This 5 star review is specifically for the worker Alex Pack. There was a lot going on in the gym, with birthday parties, people checking in, and others trying pay. Alex handled everything extremely well and managed to get all the customers taken care of in a timely manner while having outstanding customer service in his interactions with each customer and the staff working with him. I was really impressed with him.

I am a new climber and the the staff was super helpful. They walked me around, told me about the gym and how to send(??). The staff is awesome, especially Dean, Emily, and Nick.Unlike the other review, I may not be a jock but I have CrossFit experience and Im prior military but the climbing can be hard. There is stuff for all levels.I have since been to the Maryland heights gym and it has a lot more roped up climbing. This gym is primarily short climbing called bouldering.Overall, Ill be back to try to send and Ill bring all my friends to so they can try to send.

Review №98

I took climbing 101 here, and have been hooked ever since. They have the best bouldering of all the stl upper limits. Great staff. Unfortunately its weakest point is that there is barely any top rope walls or lead climbing. I have climbed at all the other locations, and would recommend giving this one a try, especially if you arent top rope certified.

I am an experienced climber and love this place. The Chesterfield location has great bouldering and tons of activities for kids of all ages from my 16 month old to my 16 year old. The kid zone area is mind blowing and both kids were drooling to climb everything there.
