Experience the fun of indoor rock climbing on the IU Outdoor Adventures bouldering wall. Unlike other forms of rock climbing, bouldering doesn’t require a harness, ropes, or any other equipment. Instead, bouldering features short routes close to the ground, allowing you to focus on using strength and balance. A thickly padded floor helps prevent injuries in the event of a fall.
The bouldering wall is for both the IU campus and the Bloomington community. If you're interested in climbing, the IU Outdoor Adventures bouldering wall, located in an air-conditioned space in Eigenmann Hall, has nearly 1,000 square feet of climbing space on three walls up to 11 feet high.
The bouldering wall may be closed on or around IU holiday breaks. You can find any closures as pinned stories on Instagram at iu_outdooradventures. These will be announced as early as possible, and at least 48 hours in advance.
