I will be working around the Greenville area in a few weeks and wanted to gather opinions on gyms close by. I found several in the area, but wanted opinions. I will be bouldering only. Thanks a lot guys!

Rocks and Ropes in Taylors is the closest to Greenville. Its right near Paris Mountain. Check out their website. www.rocksandropes.net

Thanks a lot. I've already been to their site. What I'm looking for is more of a review. How does their bouldering section hold up? Thanks again.

There are no great gyms in Greenville. The biggest and best in the U.S. just got built last summer in Atlanta. Its called Stone Summit. Columbia and Charlotte have pretty good gyms. Greenville and Clemson are good enough to get a couple of sessions in, but no destination gyms.

If you want good in this area, do the real thing. Rumbling Bald is not too far away and there are lots of small bouldering sites all throughout highway 11.

Climb Blue Ridge in Taylors, formerly known as rocks and ropes will keep you busy. If you want more stuff when you visit then just shoot me a PM. i'll get you squared away. There is also another gym in spartanburg called climb upstate i think.

Trailhead Climbing in Anderson is solid. It's one of the few gyms in the area with all 50 foot walls, some overhanging sections and a handful of sport and lead routes. Their # is (864) 225-1010.
