Climbing is in fashion. And Valencia could not miss the trend of climbing walls, indoor spaces dedicated to this sport for all ages that are filling cities around the world with climbing holds.
In Valencia, climbing walls are also serving to generate old factories or industrial buildings in disuse, and at the same time regenerate a community around the sport in neighborhoods throughout the city.
These are the climbing walls you can’t miss in your next session with climbing shoes (which you can rent in most places).
