4 climbing walls in Barcelona to train vertically
Climbing is the perfect sport to train concentration, strength, flexibility… Something like mindfulness for the restless, but with a physical component. If you can’t do without a weekly visit to the climbing wall or if you want to start climbing without leaving the city, take note of these four indoor urban climbing walls. Fully equipped, for all levels and with a great atmosphere.
1. Sharma Climbing BCN
If you like the world of climbing, surely the name of this climbing wall will ring a bell, whose founder is none other than Chris Sharma, a renowned professional climber. Open, bright and with a large area of 1500 square meters, this climbing area offers up to 160 routes of all levels. In addition, you can take advantage of the visit to practice yoga classes, TRX or other disciplines offered.

2. Climbat La Foixarda
This climbing wall is one of the largest in the city, as in addition to the interior walls, it has an outdoor wall and a garden. In total, there are three climbing walls, a training wall of 20x10 meters, a speed wall, and a competition wall, with dimensions of 30x12 meters that allows routes of up to 25 meters.

3. Freebloc Barcelona
In this space they do Boulder climbing, with panels that offer different slopes and are composed of more than 9,000 holds. Although it is a little smaller than the previous ones, its strong point is the personal attention. And, be careful, because its 300 meters of climbing surface are not bad at all.
