Grand River Rocks
50 Borden Avenue South, Unit 1 N2G 3R5 Kitchener, ON, Canada

We are open regular hours Good Friday at both gyms. However, due to today's announcement regarding the provincewide emergency brake, we will be closed starting Saturday. Thank you so much for your patience and support. We hope to see you soon. Stay safe.

We'll be open REGULAR hours on Good Friday!

Due to high demand and our red zone capacity restrictions, we kindly ask that you book no more than 3 times per week to allow other members a chance to climb.

Summer Camp registration is OPEN for 2021! Please note, we're keeping numbers low right now but we may increase camp capacity closer to the summer. https://grandriverrocks.com/kitchener/camps/

You spoke. We listened. <3 We have decided to extend our 10-Punch Card Sale until we're out of the Red. DISCOUNT (student, under 18, police, fire, paramedic, military, senior 55+) $94+tax ... REGULAR $104+tax Purchase available online. Can be used with your frozen membership. Punches can be used at either GRR location. Punches do not expire.

STARTING MONDAY, Nov 23rd our area is entering red level restrictions. We have discussed our options and come up with a plan that will help protect our climbers, our staff, and allow GRR to be here when this is all over. It wasn’t an easy decision, but we want to be fair to our members, while still protecting the longevity of the gym. Keep in mind, we did not want to do this, but it’s something that we just have to do at this point to keep our doors open. We need the s...upport of our amazing community. Please be kind and thank you so much for your patience and understanding through all of this. We hope to see your lovely faces soon. <3

Throwback to when our love for Halloween was featured in Climbing Business Journal https://www.climbingbusinessjournal.com/hyped-for-hallowe/

You can now climb at 10am in Kitchener!

We're toning down our usual Halloween celebrations this year. But we still welcome you to come dressed in costume for all timeslots on Oct 30th! We have candy and a GRAND PRIZE for the most creative use of a Covid-friendly mask in a costume. Please note that masks are still required with your costume and Halloween masks/face coverings will not suffice. At Kitchener we will have HEADLAMP CLIMBING in the last half hour of each timeslot in the second room of the gym! Both belayer and climber need a headlamp and it will be BYOH.

Feeling a bit orange today.

Evolv will be at GRR Kitchener this Thursday for a shoe demo!

Masks are now mandatory AT ALL TIMES at our facilities. This includes while you're climbing and working out in Muscle Beach. Thanks so much for your support and understanding!

We're open all weekend! Happy Thanksgiving!

Please note, our job posting has moved over to our Waterloo location! Hours are listed in the post. Please apply only if you're available during those times.

The Hemlock Street Burger Truck is here today from 12-8pm. Book a climb, have a burger! Sounds like the perfect day!

We have decided to allow prepaid members to remain frozen until they're ready to come in. All memberships will be unfrozen once all Covid-19 restrictions are lifted. (This means we will NOT be doing the bulk unfreeze on Sept. 1st!) As hard as it might be on our small business, we ultimately want to keep you, our members, happy. Stay safe, and we will see you when you are ready to come back! <3
