9 Degrees Parramatta

Fantastic experience: Great venue, route setting is pretty good too. Had quite the workout. Will be back soon.

Negative experience: Little man at the counter charged me a full day pass for the last half hour until closing. Not very welcoming tone when I inquired about pricing.

Fantastic experience: It was my first time bouldering and the staff made quick work of the registration and precautions. The puzzles are fun and challenging. After I was done with my session, the weights gym is kind of lacking but it is mainly for muscle groups used for bouldering.

Positive experience: Great place for bouldering. Friendly staff good walls.

Fantastic experience: Great bouldering gym, very technical problems and super friendly helpful staff.

Positive experience: A little powerhouse! Despite its small size, this gym does a good job of providing a quality range of features. It would be among the smallest bouldering gyms in Sydney, yet you get a good range of walls, functional training area, ping pong table, and strength and conditioning facilities. None of these features are class leading, but they are all satisfactory, and the fact you even have such a broad selection in such a small space is an exceptional use of space. The focus is unsurprisingly on providing a good range of bouldering routes, but as a result it can definitely get crowded during busier periods. It would be nice to see a slightly better equipped strength and conditioning gym, but there aren’t many bouldering gyms that have stand out S&C setups, so I wouldn’t expect much from such a small gym either. Ultimately this gym is limited most by its size, but does what it can and does it fairly well. If you live nearby, and convenience/travel distance are important to you, then this is a great option! It’s my closest gym and one I’ll definitely return to, but will continue to visit other gyms too.

Fantastic experience: I love everything about it. So good

Fantastic experience: Great bouldering gym with lots of interesting routes and a big overhang area. Some limited bouldering gear for sale as well.

Fantastic experience: A Homey Gym with a great crowd of people that are always down to help you with boulders and just a great place to make friends. Most Staff are very kind and welcoming some more then others. All and all it’s a great place to train with a good level scaling and fun routes.

Fantastic experience: First time to try this and will not be the last. Absolutely enjoyed it. Aside from the climbing space, theres also a calisthenics area. They also have a decent functional area for stretching/warm ups and few plates and weights on the upper floor.

Fantastic experience: Great climbing gym with colour specific gradings, which makes it easy to navigate. Friendly staff and people who are always happy to help.

Fantastic experience: My first time bouldering, The atmosphere in the place is so nice, the climbs are well maintained and clean. The staff are souper nice and helpful, the people at the place tend to also be very nice and help when they see you struggling with a climb. Although the facility is small there are a wide variety of climbs which allow climbers from any level have fun and improve their upper body strength.

Fantastic experience: Ive been climbing here regularly for the past 3 months. Although comparably smaller than other climbing gyms, the routes have always been enjoyable and facilities have always been clean and tidy. The staff here have always been kind, providing things like hairties and deodorant. And I recently injured myself on one of the climbs, and staff member Chelsea handled the situation in such a calm and caring manner. I felt very panicked in the moment but Chelsea helped me to calm down, as well as treat my injury. Very keen to come back here after I recover. Thank you Chelsea :)))

Fantastic experience: Great place to work on your upper body muscle. Kinda hard to find parking spots. Make sure to be careful not to get peeled skins.

Positive experience: Not 100% satisfied with the music that comes on the radio whenever I've been here. Pretty much most of the times I've been here with StepUp Disability Services, most tracks that play in the background appear to be explicit (I remember hearing swears every 2 seconds or so in most tracks), which may not be suitable for children. This gym is supposed to be open to everyone, so my recommendation to improve this gym is set the radio to clean music only, as well as the clean edits of songs that were initially explicit.

Positive experience: Good place to explore. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. Could do with more staff, there was only one person in the reception.

Fantastic experience: Been rocking up here once a week since early 2023. Staff always make you feel welcome and the climbs are always challenging

Fantastic experience: Good

Fantastic experience: Lovely staff, extremely beginners friendly, and people who happily stop what they are doing to help you

Fantastic experience: This was the first bouldering gym I went to a what a great place it is to start the journey ! So many fun climbs for climbers of all levels. Love that the beginner climbs are not just simple and boring but require the use of different skills and styles, allowing beginners to build up to harder grades.

Fantastic experience: Nice place for bouldering and pet friendly

Fantastic experience: Started here to climb for the first time and went to all the other 9 Degrees within Sydney. Love it to bits. The staff is always lovely with cute dogs everywhere. Coffee is always bomb along with the matcha. Highly recommend! Climbs are also fun and well coordinated. Love it here!

Positive experience: Decent gym, just a little too packed and the routes aren't my style

Positive experience: The family enjoyed a birthday meetup and exercise together for fun. A good day!

Fantastic experience: Went early on a Wednesday. Good climbs and helpful staff. Has a really cool gym upstairs too

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced climber, this indoor climbing gym is a must-visit for all climbing enthusiasts!

Fantastic experience: Fun, challenging and a nice place to hang with friends

Fantastic experience: It is one of the best places I have been across the town. Everything seems to be in a understanding manner.

Positive experience: First time there today. Was an easy sign up and complimentary one week unlimited access which was awesome. Lots of different problems to work on, the grading there was a little confusing at first but i quickly worked it out and felt quite comfortable with the layout. Mid session my son was feeling a bit hungry so I bought a couple of cliff bars from the front. My sons one turned out to be mouldly. I brought it up with the man at the front and he looked at it for a second and quickly said oh it should be OK, turned around and walked off. Which then I had to throw it out and lost my money on it. Other than the staff working the register the gym was great. I'll just have to remember to bring my own snacks next time.

Fantastic experience: Been going here for a while, off and on w.r.t. the pandemic, but it's consistently well run, with a broad range of interesting climbs, and every week one section has new climbs, on rotation with the other sections.

Fantastic experience: The best bouldering gym in the Parramatta region!

Fantastic experience: Awesome! Staff was super friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Amazing walls, great atmosphere. A bit pricey.

Fantastic experience: Beginner friendly bouldering gym! I love coming here with friends!

Fantastic experience: Neat little gym with a good mix of boulders. I usually go before work on Tuesday and Friday mornings (thankful for the 6am starts otherwise I'd struggle to fit it in!) and it's nice and quiet. The temperature is also perfect in summer, but winter is a struggle hahaha.... There's also a gym area upstairs which works as a nice warm up area or for doing workouts when I want to focus more on training than climbing.

Fantastic experience: Great service, great atmosphere. Going to Cost you about $27 with shoe hire, although the first one is free! (I think)

Positive experience: Good selection of climbs for people to try out, friendly staff. Looking forward to visiting again.

Fantastic experience: Really great place to enjoy urself and have fun with friends while doing physical activity

Positive experience: The bouldering gym was quite nice! Some difficult climbs but also enough to entertain beginners for at least an hour. The gym component was very nice with a large amount of space, and even a ping pong table. The only fault i have is the size of the climbing walls as the area is relatively small in comparison to other bouldering gyms and thus waiting times are longer to wait for other climbers first.

Positive experience: Great people, great coffees and great patrons

Positive experience: Great bouldering and gym venue. A little small but still great fun. The gym and table tennis is upstairs. Friendly staff!

Fantastic experience: Best bouldering gym in the area and staff are super friendly.

Fantastic experience: Wow from the big complex to the smallest details, this place has it all. The upstairs gym, clean facilities, generous provision of chalk and isopropyl was life changing. But what topped it off was the staff, especially Tim. After his shift, he was like Spider-Man in showing us how it’s done, so so welcoming and uplifting that you felt like you’ve know him for years.

Fantastic experience: Good facilities and they change their walls regularly.

Fantastic experience: I went to this gym today for the first time, it was just after 6am so it was pretty quiet. The staff member was very welcoming and friendly (I wish I got his name now) and I felt that this was the most chilled climbing gym I have been to yet. There is no pretence, the people climbing there seemed to all get along and smiles all around. The problems were top class and the coffee was even better! I loved the small touches like the feminine hygiene products in the bathroom! I will be back!

Fantastic experience: Enough courses for beginners and challengers. Clean amenities, plentiful parking. Friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Loved it would go again

Fantastic experience: Gets a bit busy but with such a great gym I can see why. Walls are changed regularly, staff are very friendly and helpful

Fantastic experience: Awesome variety of problems, good coffee and really friendly staff. Today Chelsea helped me to pick out some climbing shoes, was patient, gave lots of good advice and also delivered some choice beta thanks!

Positive experience: The place needs a revamp! It's competitors are much bigger and better, they try their best at 9 degrees but with so much competition around they need to make some changes in order to keep the crowd. Used to be my favourite place to boulder, ive moved to blauchouse

Positive experience: A d3cent climbing gym.

Fantastic experience: Great for beginners and more advanced climbers. Definitely a welcoming and helpful environment

Fantastic experience: A great experience and great bouldering centre! Staff are helpful and friendly from the moment you sign in, and there's plenty of walls and different difficulties to try out. Bring your friends!

Fantastic experience: Best bouldering gym in sydney

Positive experience: Nice place to hang if you don't mind the smell of dirty socks mixed with coffee

Fantastic experience: This spot is poppin' off with the new climbing wave . Really nice gym with some cool challenging climbs. Definitely recommend if you've just gotten into climbing or have been climbing for a while. You can start on the easy and work your way up (literally) very easily. A lot of fun and the community there is very friendly They got a nice lil chalk set-up in the middle for everyone to use when they need too.

Positive experience: Quite a small wall, Though not enough easy routes to warm up on. However can burn a couple of hrs there. There is a nice training gym upstairs. Good for regular climbers. I'm writing this based as a tourist climber.

Fantastic experience: My home climbing gym. Friendly staff (always) they remember your name, great community, love furry friends, toilets always clean and theres a gym upstairs! Winning!

Fantastic experience: Great place to climbing! Friendly people, and just a great environment

Fantastic experience: Really good but can get pretty crowded

Fantastic experience: Great place for indoor climbing / bouldering. A bit crowded sometimes but all the athletes are very nice and always keen to help. There is a variety of climbs of different difficulty, and they change quite often so you never get bored! Discounts are available for students and all the staff is very friendly and passionate about this sport. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Had a wonderful time, welcoming and friendly staff, great deals for beginners and students (free shoe hire on your first climes with 9 Degrees, $80 month membership for newbies and cheaper entry and memberships for students). The climbs are fun and interesting and the music is amazing. There is a gym upstairs and an extra training area down stairs to warm up, work out and improve stamina. There's also a little cafe where you can get hot beverages (including a free one if you post your experience on Facebook or instagram) which has maple syrup as an option to replace honey (to make act as a vegan friendly sweetener though sugar is also avaliable). There's also an adorable dog that enjoys pats and wanders around the centre (his owner works there).

Positive experience: I'm a novice climber but had lots of fun! Free shoes the first time you go, different climbs for different skill levels and of course coffee. Also pretty popular with friendly vibes but not crowded.

Fantastic experience: Visited once, unfortunately injured my ankle but there is a nice community vibe here and interestingly enough has one of the best coffees i've ever tasted.

Fantastic experience: Excellent rock gym. Regular refresh keeps it fresh

Fantastic experience: The best gym area (upstairs) of all 9 degrees gyms. Climbs are real decent too

Positive experience: It has a great variety for beginners and experienced people at the sport . Nice open air atmosphere. The only down fall was the service the girl behind the counter just seemed not to care and would rather sit down and chill with her friends . When serving she just had no smile or personality . Even when asking for a band aid one would receive attitude . The highlight of the night are the variety of cute dogs Other then the service the venue is quite nice.

Fantastic experience: Excellent place to test your strength and have fun with a group of buddies.

Fantastic experience: That is a great place to having fun and exercise with your mate.

Fantastic experience: I love this place! Its been a really cool journey as I try and conquer my fear of heights, while getting stronger at the same time. Everybody is super nice and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Great bouldering gym with nice casual vibes during the day. Bit smaller than the other 9 degrees locations but has everything you need for training (campus boards, circuits, some gym equipment, etc.). Would highly recommend a visit here.

Fantastic experience: I frequent this place quite often on weekends. Staff are friendly, the people are friendly, music is perfect (if you like golden age hip hop).

Positive experience: The facilities at 9 Degrees are great for bouldering. There is a wide range of routes for all abilities. The mats are safe to land on. The gym equipment are a nice touch.
