Boiler Room Climbing Gym 

993 Princess Street, Kingston 

If you’re ready to reach new heights, The Boiler Room Climbing Gym is the perfect place to start. This 13,500 sq. ft. facility features over 6,000 sq. ft. of bouldering terrain, 43-foot lead walls, and Ontario’s first 15-metre, two-lane speed wall. 

Beginners can drop in and try both bouldering (up to 15 ft above cushioned mats, no ropes) and auto-belays, which gently lower you to the ground. No booking is required, and first-time auto-belay users receive a 15–20 minute safety orientation. Rentals are available, and all ages are welcome (youth 13 and under require adult supervision).
