Los Angeles, California, United States
Hollywood Boulders is Touchstone Climbing's bouldering gym on the corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and North Bronson Avenue, across the street from the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. It opened in 2016 as Touchstone's third gym in greater Los Angeles. There are no ropes: more than 11,000 sq ft of bouldering on walls up to 16 ft high carries 200+ problems over slabs, steep overhangs, dihedrals and corners, each with a V grade on its start tag. For top-roping, Touchstone points climbers to Cliffs of Id and The Post.
New climbers can book a 30-minute Intro to Bouldering class with shoes and a day pass included, and clinics such as Basic Technique and Make the Jump to V5 follow on from it. A full timetable of yoga and fitness classes, including acro yoga, is included in membership. Children of any age can boulder with an adult close by; Kids Club (7–11) and Youth Club (12+) train weekly, and after-school and summer camps take 7 to 12-year-olds. She Rocks, Queer Crush, The People's Climbing Crew, Escalemos, FilipinUp and the sober-friendly Dry Rock Foundation meet here monthly, and the gym hosts a summer round of the Touchstone Climbing Series. Membership covers every Touchstone gym in California. Parking is a small lot with tandem spaces plus free street parking nearby.

“…overall it was a great indoor climbing gym with locker rooms. Very inclusive space as well.”
“The afternoon / evening staff are always friendly, the music is usually really good … and the facilities are very clean. My main issue as a capable beginner is there are not enough V3 routes.”
“It’s great for Kids 👍 my niece had such a great time.. it is truly rewarding activity to share..”
