climbing gym
Indoor scaling venue
A climbing gym is an indoor facility with artificial walls designed for rock climbing practice and training.
The walls feature textured surfaces with attached holds of varying shapes and difficulty levels.
Climbing gyms typically offer bouldering areas, top-rope routes, and lead climbing walls: I've been going to the climbing gym three times a week.
Most provide rental gear and instruction for beginners.
