Grovedale’s bouldering-only gym

Industry Boulders is the plastic paradise you’ve been looking for.

We are a bouldering-only gym, which means you don’t need ropes or a harness, just come in and climb.

Located in Grovedale we are home to more than 200 square metres of climbing walls with an ever-changing selection of climbs on them and a range of difficulties.

Bouldering is a discipline of rock climbing that is rope free where climbers will climb up to 4.3-metres high over a bed of purposely designed foam mats. Climbers use their hands and feet to navigate routes that require strength, balance, and problem-solving skills.

We have roughly 70 climbs up on the wall that vary in style and difficulty. Catering for everyone from first timers to experienced climbers over a range of walls that include technical slab to powerful cave and overhang.

Regardless of if you are a climber who needs a pick me up or a tired supporting friend watching, we also have a small cafe where we can make all kinds of caffeinated drinks courtesy of locally roasted beans from Geelong Coffee roasters. As well as pizza ovens where we can make you one of our delicious pizzas.

We also have training boards upstairs for members use only which includes a MoonBoard and a Spray Wall. If you are looking for more training equipment, we also have a small gym that contains everything you need to further your climbing progression.

No prior climbing experience is required to give bouldering a go. If it’s your first time climbing at Industry Boulders you can make the most of our free climbing shoe hire on your first visit.

Children 15 and under must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. There is no age limit at our facility.

However, our climbs can be height dependant which are more so achievable by participants 10 years and older. Climbs may be difficult for younger participants depending on their abilities.

To learn more about what we do here at Industry Boulders check out our Instagram and our website for more information.

Whether you’re a climbing veteran, wide-eyed newbie, or fitness fanatic, you’ll find your home here.
