The Hive-Vancouver

At the Hive, we believe that ‘Everyone is a Climber.’ You are never too old or too young to start climbing. Remember when your mother told you ‘Get Down Off That!’? Well here at the Hive, we encourage you to climb the walls! Remember when you first felt that sensation of being just a little bit too high off the ground? Perhaps it was in a tree at the park, or the rocks at the seashore. You either climbed onwards or came down. At the Hive we offer you the environment to explore this threshold at your own pace, with minimized risk, and with the support of like-minded individuals. We can help you climb higher and harder, or we can help you just get off the ground! The Hive is Vancouver’s only Bouldering Gym. It is the response to a great need seen within Vancouver: the need for a climbing space that supports the vibrant climbing community in the lower mainland. The Hive is also a response to the longstanding need for a climbing gym dedicated to the fantastic pursuit of bouldering; arguably, both the best way to learn and to advance in climbing at any level – beginner, intermediate, or advanced. The Hive is more than your average Indoor Climbing Gym. It is a place to hang out, meet others, listen to great music, and climb till your heart’s content. We host a lively and active social scene, made up of a community of caring and considerate climbers, sharing stories and successes, supporting each other and celebrating climbing together. Owned and operated by climbers; here at the Hive we truly love climbing, and we want to share our passion with everyone. We also understand the importance of ample change rooms, training and warmup areas, top-outs and high lip-tops, a kid’s room and birthday party area, and a wide variety of terrain for all skill levels. These, and other features including social events, competitions, our Youth Climbing Team, musical nights, film screenings, and community arts festivals will make the Hive Your Climbing Community.
