ROCK CLIMBING IN WEST VIRGINIA
Rock climbing and rappelling adventures have become some of our most popular On The Gorge activities. The New River Gorge and Gauley River Canyon recreation areas offer some of the best rock climbing terrain in the eastern U.S.
With over 4,000 unique rock climbing routes and expert AMGA certified climbing guides, all skill levels are easily addressed so that anyone can give this sport a try. From Bridge Buttress to Junkyard, Endless Wall to Bubba City, Summersville Lake to Beauty Mountain, you’ve got many routes to choose from and lots of rock climbing terrain to practice on. Many people think you have to be in excellent physical condition to enjoy rock climbing but this just isn't true! We have designed our climbing clinics to focus on fun and recreation, not difficult routes. Climbing trips can be enjoyed by anyone, even children as young as eight. We offer numerous recreational climbing trips for all skill levels. Our most popular trip is an evening “Sunset” rappel. Gravity does all the work in rappelling! We also offer half-day and full-day guided climbing trips with easy routes and lots of rappelling. Perhaps you'd prefer more technical climbs or private instruction from our experienced rock climbing experts? We only hire AMGA certified Top Rope Site Managers and AMGA certified single Pitch Instructors. We can customize your trip to include more technical routes and or advanced skills. We also offer Rock Climbing Instructional Classes such as Basic Top Roping, Traditional Lead Climbing, Multi-pitch Climbing, Self Rescue for climbers and AMGA Single Pitch Instructor certification. For a truly exceptional experience, try our full day Rock Climbing/Pontoon Boat Trip on Summersville Lake. We highly recommend seeing nature from this unique perspective during your stay in West Virginia.
