Rockcity hosts probably the best bouldering walls in the UK.
There are 3 distinctive areas to test your bouldering skills with problems to suit all levels of boulderer.

The massive Bouldering Cave
Built in 1995 with a complete re-featuring and some new sections in October 2000, this is completely rock like in both appearance and feel, no bolt on holds giving a "natural feel" to the climbing. 12ft in vertical height, overhanging by some 14ft, giving you maximum upside down land!
The Moon Wall
In 2003 the MOON Bouldering Wall was built above the Bouldering Cave. Designed by Ben Moon and features bolt-on holds and large volumes. The problems are changed on a regular basis and are set for the intermediate to advanced climber.  This area also has a campus board and is a replica in both spacing and profile of the rungs to the legendary School Room in Sheffield.
The Cellar
If you need to build up your finger strength then this is the place for you.
Dedicated to serious training and bouldering. There is a high concentration of steep angles combined with small holds.
You wont be able to spend all day in here!

The bouldering is not finished there. Most of the other walls in the centre contain many more problems. There is even a Fontainebleau like circuit with coloured arrows guiding you around the problems.

Several areas of interest are to be found at the base of the "Trad Wall", the "Yellow Slab" and the original featured top roping walls.

The Cellar - The stepped board is an exact replica of the board Neil Gresham got so strong on, in a cellar deep below his old home in Sheffield.

The Cressbrook Board was built by Gavin Ellis and Ben Prichard during their stay in Hull whilst building the Trad Wall.

 

Lists of the marked problems are displayed around the building.
