The Hive Heights

We acknowledge that The Hive, where we work and climb, operates on the traditional and ancestral unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We recognize and respect them as nations in this territory, as well as their historic connection to the lands and waters around us. 
Climbers and Indigenous peoples share a sacred connection to the land. The Hive is committed to engaging in meaningful partnership with indigenous communities in the spirit of reconciliation and the creation of an inclusive climbing community.

know before you go

Climbing involves inherent risks. Read our rules and know the main hazards of the gym before you decide to climb with us. See the waiver for a more detailed list of the risks, and view rules and hazards posters using the buttons below.

TOP ROPE BELAY TESTS

Want to climb and belay on Top Rope? Check out more info using the button below.

Lead Test

In order to Lead or Lead Belay in the gym, you must pass a Lead Test. Follow the buttons below for more important information prior to testing.

The Hive Heights FAQ

Yes. All visitors/guests/members need to book a climbing session; you can do that further down this page, or through the ‘RGPro Connect’ App.

If you’re going to belay another climber, you must pass a belay test with qualified Hive staff. You will need a partner to test with, they may already have passed the test, or you can both be testing together. For safety and liability reasons, these tests are Pass/Fail, at the sole discretion of staff performing the check.

If you’re only using the auto-belays, please see desk staff for orientation to this equipment.

Human error is the number one cause of injury in climbing, and these safety measures are mandatory.

Learn More

Yes you can! You must either pass a belay test or take an intro to climbing course to learn how to handle the added risks of roped climbing, and the basics of belaying.

When you belay a climber, you hold your life in their hands and we take that seriously. Unfortunately, non-staff are not permitted to teach new belayers in our facility.
