Click here for UREC Climbing Gym Hours of Operation

Top rope climbing will only be available Monday - Friday, 4 pm - 6:30 pm.
Bouldering will be available during all open hours.

The UREC Climbing Gym includes both a 19’ top rope wall and a 13’ bouldering wall. The top rope wall features a variety of routes ranging in difficulty levels from beginner to advanced, with certified belayers guiding the climbers. The bouldering wall offers a different type of climbing experience, free from all harnesses and ropes. Bouldering, used more as a warm up to the traditional sport of climbing, emphasizes finesse in body movement, technique, balance, and endurance. Both walls emulate the essence of rock, featuring replications of the feel and intricacy of natural rock. From the beginner to the advanced, our routes are changed regularly to keep the excitement and challenge fresh.
