1. boulder+ – Has a 60° overhang & top out wall
boulder+ is where you can attempt to conquer the top out wall and get a feel of what it’s like to climb outdoors. For the uninitiated, this type of wall has climbers making their way over the wall and completing the course at the top.
Once you’re done conquering “Mt. Everest”, head over to the 60-degree overhang wall for some vertical hangs. You’ll see a variety of routes with different difficulty levels, so both new and veteran climbers can try their hand at completing them.
2. Z Vertigo – Affordable rates from $12/day for youths
Tucked away in Bukit Timah Shopping Centre is Z Vertigo, a big favourite amongst the pros. But that’s not to say that beginners should avoid this gym as it features a tonne of lower-level routes too. They also have fingerboards and hangboards if you’d like to train your finger strength and resistance.
While the space is slightly smaller, gym entries are uber affordable – youths born after 2005 can score passes at $12/pax and adult passes are priced at just $17/pax. Plus, the place is just a short 4-minute walk from Beauty World MRT so you also save on some transport fees.
3. BFF Climb – Beginner-friendly routes & kids corner
There’s also a slide for kids to whiz down at the Play Zone (right).

We know, we know. It can be pretty daunting climbing these high walls, especially when you’re bouldering with no harness. Those afraid of heights can visit BFF Climb instead as the gym has shorter walls that are beginner-friendly.
Kiddos can also have fun at the Play Zone, where there are mini routes and a foam pit for them to jump into. No minimum age is required – children just need to be at least 11kg. And good news for all Easties as BFF Climb is opening a new outlet in Tampines, just a 3-minute walk away from Tampines MRT.
4. Upwall Climbing – Wide range of auto belay lanes
The gym also has 8 lead climbing lanes.

Upwall Climbing is where top rope climbers will thrive as there are 15 auto belay and 10 top rope lanes to check out. For those unfamiliar with climbing terms, top rope climbing is where climbers will don a harness to scale higher walls. Top rope lanes require an extra person to belay as a form of support, while auto belay routes use a machine instead.
Young kids can consider visiting this gym to try out the kid-friendly routes too – passes go at $12/entry on weekdays for those under 18. And for those who love documenting their climbs, you’ll be pleased to know that the giant windows around the gym let in a tonne of natural sunlight so your lighting will be slay.
5. Fit Bloc – Also has pool & gym

For a bao ga liao package, head to one of Singapore’s largest bouldering and fitness centre – Fit Bloc. There are 3 massive bouldering walls, and they’ve recently added 7 auto belay lanes. But that’s not all – your entry pass will also grant you access to the swimming pool, gym, and co-working space.
They currently have 2 outlets: Depot Heights Shopping Centre and The Oasis, near NUS. First-timers can also enjoy the $60/3 passes package – so you’ll save $24 with this promotion.

It’s pretty small so there won’t be too many people – great if you’re a newbie who doesn’t want 100 people staring as you fall like a coconut from a tree.
