Why CityBloc stands out
CityBloc is an independent bouldering gym in Leeds South Bank that has operated since 2009. The climbing includes varied wall angles and a competition wall, while the rest of the building feels built around regular use rather than a one-off activity session.

The training area includes a Kilter Board, spray wall, campus and fingerboards, plus weights and cardio equipment. First-time boulderers can choose an online or in-person induction; check the official first-visit page to pick the right route before arriving.
