ROCK CLIMBING IN WEST VIRGINIA
Rock climbing and rappelling adventures have become some of our most popular New River Gorge Adventure Center 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 Bubby City, Summerville 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.

I just came down for the Memorial Day weekend and I have to say that the employees at Rivermen couldn't have made it a more pleasurable experience. From the general goodhearted friendliness to the curbside fire wood delivery, I want to say that it just doesn't get much better than that. The real pleasure was dealing with those circus animals you call rafting guides. From Robert C with his bad jokes that made even the most hung over person laugh to the guide who gave us a heck of a ride Nugget aka Nick. Not only I, but we as a collective group can say that the experience we had on the river that day was all do to the expertise, wherewithal, leadership, and downright fularious antics of Nick. I want to come back down as soon as I possibly can and ride the Gauley and the guide I want taking me down those class fives is Nick. Anyways, we all had a blast, so thank you for a supurb weekend. There was no better way to spend Memorial Day weekend then with the people of Rivermen.Cheers,Steve Euga
