Indoor Boulder Riazzino is an indoor climbing gym entirely dedicated to bouldering. The facility offers numerous boulder problems of varying difficulty levels and is an ideal place to train throughout the year, both for beginners and experienced climbers. Managed by the Società Escursionistica Verzaschese (SEV), the gym is open to the public and regularly welcomes young people, families, schools and groups.

Located in Riazzino, in the heart of the Magadino Plain, Indoor Boulder is an important reference point for the climbing community of Ticino. Opened in 2002 at the initiative of the Società Escursionistica Verzaschese (SEV), it was one of the first facilities in the canton dedicated exclusively to bouldering.

The gym features walls and structures designed for rope-free climbing in complete safety thanks to large crash mats. The many routes, which are regularly renewed, allow beginners, experienced climbers and athletes to train on problems of varying difficulty levels.

Thanks to its convenient location, easily reachable from the Locarno and Bellinzona regions as well as the surrounding valleys, the facility is an excellent alternative to outdoor crags during the colder months or on rainy days. The gym is also used for youth activities, courses, organised training sessions and school programmes.
