Bloccity Boulder Gym
Bloccity is the new bouldering gym membership for Rockcity, Hulls indoor
climbing centre.
Its now possible to use the bouldering walls (shorter walls without ropes)
within Rockcity with this new membership type.
Bouldering has exploded in recent years as the coolest sport to keep you
fit, work every part of your body and test your strength and skills against the
different boulder problems within the centre. All the boulder problems are set
by experienced climbers and world class pros.
If you are tired of the gym and want to do something that rocks instead then
bouldering is for you.
With a basic induction to the centre and you are off, no courses, rope work,
belay tests, just pure climbing.
Rockcity hosts some of the most varied bouldering walls in the UK. There will
be three distinctive areas to test your bouldering skills with problems to suit all
levels of boulderer.
Bloccity has its own separate Bouldering Only Registration Forms and
Conditions of Use which doesn't allow you to use the rest of the Rockcity
climbing centre.
The induction package costs £26.70 and includes your admission for your first visit, the annual registration fee of £10 and hire of climbing shoes and chalk bag. A drink and a chocolate bar to keep you going.

La Cantina
La Cantina is our latest creation. This new bouldering room has it all, steep walls, roof sections, vertical walls and slabs. This ultra realistic gritstone finish allows you to place your feet anywhere and they will stick. Coloured circuits allow you easy identification of boulder problems of similar difficulty without having to refer to the grades sheets every time you want to find a new boulder
problem to climb. La Cantina is sponsored by La Sportiva, climbing shoe manufacturers.
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.
