Back in February, Cultivate Climbing announced its expansion. It will reimagine the indoor Foundation Skatepark space as the Foundy Bouldering Gym, a 13,000-sqft facility with 8,000 sqft of bouldering space, weight room, and food, drink, and gear shop, which is set to open Friday, Nov. 1. But Cultivate Climbing recently doubled (well, tripled) down, sharing plans for a third Asheville gym.

The BoardRoom is slated to open at the beginning of February 2025 inside Hatch Coworking. Open to members 18+, the facility will feature high-tech training walls, letting you try out the same routes as climbers across the country in real-time. There will also be yoga classes, areas for weight training and cardio, and a sauna and cold plunge to support climbers’ recovery.

To experience roped climbing at The River, bouldering at the Foundy gym, and advanced training and wellness offerings at The BoardRoom, Cultivate Climbing will offer a membership that grants you access to all three.
