Steel Peak Climbing & Ninja

Huge climbing gym with a wide variety of bouldering and top rope walls. The inside is very nice, clean, and spacious. I came on a weekend afternoon and even with a large number of people it didn’t feel packed. There are a wide variety of walls for bouldering and for top rope. Setting tends to skew on the harder side, so be prepared for a challenge! Staff are super friendly and helpful.

This is a indoor rock climbing place which have all levels. We came Saturday morning, booked online in advance. The staff is very friendly and helpful, gave us a brief orientation. My kids really enjoyed the climbing, tried multiple levels, especially like the auto belayed ones. They also offer birthday parties on weekends and ninja classes on Thursdays. You can easily spend the day here.

I like this gym! It was my first time here and I’ve climbed at many climbing gyms before my visit here.Aspire Vaughan is very spacious (and also at times, very cold). I love how there is a spray wall and a kilterboard amongst the other climbings on the walls. I was told by the regular members that they usually reset the walls every week which is very nice (challenging to project anything in this case). The usual gyms I visit in downtown reset about once a month.If you want to change the angle of the kilterboard, you must ask a staff to do this. I was climbing with a few other guys and at times, it was hard to grab any staff as they’re occupied with other customers. During my visit, the staff seemed a little overwhelmed given there were only two people manning the storefront (owner should consider having three staff members on a Saturday morning).The facilities were very clean and well maintained. Lockers and showers are inside the men’s/women’s washrooms. Bring your own lock if you need to use the locker, otherwise, they have shelves outside the washroom area for your belongings.I enjoyed all the problems under the cave area, it was really challenging but also fun to train for endurance. The grading is soft, if you’re at least a V5/V6 climber, the climbs here might be too easy for you.As for the obstacle area of the gym, it was mainly occupied by kids, I can’t comment on it much as I haven’t ran it myself but I think it’s more for kids than adults to be honest. Doesn’t look challenging at all. Regardless, I highly recommend this gym, it’s finally nice to have a gym that’s somewhat ‘central’ of GTA!

I had a lot of fun bouldering with my friends. The staff members were very friendly and helped us get started. However, the price of the chalk was really expensive ($8). I would encourage the organization to reduce prices. If you are coming here for the first time, buy your chalk on Amazon or a cheaper site. Nevertheless, I still had a lot of fun!!

So much fun. The staff were great and very helpful. Good for all levels

This place is relatively new, and it's huge. So much space for social distancing. Ventilation is good; it has a big industrial ceiling fan. For bouldering lovers, this place is for you. It also has a few auto-belay climbing set ups and a ninja course. Washrooms are clean. Staff are super nice and helpful. They have programs for kids, depending on age and levels. They also sell some climbing stuff like shoes, shirts, and more. If you like a clean and spacious gym for bouldering and climbing, this place is one great option.

I went with my bro and his gf. They don't climb often. From an experienced climber's perspective, there are a lot of bouldering walls compared to my local gym. From beginner to comp, they got it all. The auto-belay wall is small, but it's decent.Staff are friendly and helpful.The ninja stuff is alright.. but more like a gimmick honestly.The washroom is clean and tidy. All things considered, I might consider switching gyms..

Typically, kids' birthday parties are dull affairs. At Aspire, however, they are absolutely fantastic. I celebrated my son's tenth birthday last weekend and enjoyed the event as much as the kids did.Brittany was a fantastic trainer and facilitator. Not only did she guide the children through the courses with patience and clear direction, but she also took the time to get me involved. As a result, I tried climbing after a 24-year hiatus! This is exactly the kind of staff that a place like Aspire needs to distinguish it from the competition.Adam, who was posted to the reception desk during our visit, was also amazing. From the moment we walked in, he was welcoming, helpful and amiable.My son and his buddies had a blast, running the ninja course after trying their hands at the climbing wall. The space was bright, clean and not overcrowded.I will definitely be returning to Aspire thanks to this excellent experience. My gratitude and kudos go out to Brittany, Adam and Aspire management for delivering an unrivalled event that was fun for kids and adults alike.

Kids only spend time on Ninja warrior area, to be honest, no difference compare to outdoor playground….my only concern there is no instructor or staff give help or monitoring. For rock climbing, I pay $3 for 5 climbing tracks in Aurora community Center, but it cost $14 extra ($22 basic fee) for shoes and gear, so I haven’t try here.
