About Hangar 18 Indoor Climbing Gym - Riverside

Hangar 18 Indoor Climbing Gym in Riverside spans over 13,000 square feet of climbing terrain across multiple disciplines. Visitors can try top-rope climbing on more than 75 routes suitable for various ability levels, or attempt lead climbing on 50-plus routes designed for advanced climbers. Auto belays allow solo climbers to ascend without a partner, while bouldering—climbing without ropes over padded surfaces—helps climbers build skills quickly. The facility includes a dedicated fitness room, training area, and party room for group events. First-time visitors attend introductory classes covering their chosen climbing style, from basic top-rope techniques to auto-belay operation and bouldering fundamentals. All participants complete a liability waiver and orientation before climbing. The gym suits climbers of nearly any age and experience level, whether beginners seeking instruction or experienced climbers advancing their skills.
