Where the gyms are
The gyms spread across north Hertfordshire and south Cambridgeshire. Buntingford itself has one box, and the rest are in towns around it.
- Buntingford: Evolve Fitness (CrossFit Buntingford) on Watermill Industrial Estate.
- Royston: CrossFit Royston at The Heath, and The Functional Fitness Centre. Royston has two gyms, so it is the easiest base for a choice.
- Bassingbourn: Iron Hive, near Royston, with CrossFit, HYROX and open gym.
- Letchworth Garden City: CrossFit Beowulf on Jackmans Estate.
- Hertford Heath: Huntsman Training Club (CrossFit Huntsman).
- Welwyn Garden City: The Training Zone (TTZ CrossFit).
- Gunnels Wood Park: Six Hills CrossFit.
Plan to drive. Free parking is listed at Six Hills CrossFit, CrossFit Beowulf, CrossFit Royston and The Functional Fitness Centre, and Huntsman Training Club has on-site parking.

How to book
- CrossFit Beowulf: book the drop-in through TeamUp. Drop-ins are for visiting CrossFitters.
- Iron Hive: book through TeamUp or the Iron Hive app.
- Evolve Fitness: sign the waiver online before you arrive. Weekday classes run from 6am to 7pm.
- The Training Zone: book drop-ins up to two days ahead. A free consultation comes first.
- CrossFit Royston: bookings open up to two weeks ahead. The gym opens 05:00 to 23:00 every day.
- Huntsman Training Club: start with the free one-hour intro before your first class. HYROX runs on Thursdays.
- The Functional Fitness Centre: check the app timetable first. Performance classes need experience, and the gym is not a CrossFit affiliate.
