unrivalled width of 10 metres (32 feet), double the size of a standard one, and a record-breaking height of 32 metres (104 feet). The experience allows fi rst-time, intermediate and skilled fl yers the opportunity to reach new heights.

At CLYMB Abu Dhabi, we provide guests of all skillsets with the opportunity to explore indoor climbing with fi ve walls of varying degrees of height and diffi culty. The fi rst wall, known as The Boulder, is designed for guests to fi rst familiarise themselves with climbing, whereas The Warm-up Wall allows climbers to practice with the auto- belay device before tackling more challenging routes with The Intermediate, which is nearly double the height of The Beginner.
