The Lactic Factory is Melbourne, and Australia's first dedicated, bouldering-only climbing gym. Located in Abbotsford, we host Melbourne's bouldering community by offering great routes and atmosphere to train in, all close to public transport. The Lactic Factory is open 7 days a week (see below for opening hours), where there are facilities for storing bicycles and gear, with drinks and snacks available while training along with a comfy place to chill out!
