Resistance Climbing
Dunedin, New Zealand
0 reviews
Our new facility is the first of its kind in Dunedin and is designed to support the growing climbing community in Otago. Whatever your level of strength or fitness, you’ll find a challenge that’s right for you. Designed to mimic the challenges of outdoor rock climbing, our indoor bouldering gym – perfect for Dunedin’s temperamental weather – involves the use of artificial climbing walls with moveable holds offering an array of physical challenges. For some, it offers accessible all-year-round prep for outdoor climbs. For others, it’s the perfect work out all by itself. And remember, all our climbs are graded, so there’s always something for beginners – but you’ll be surprised how quickly you can progress.
