Description

Some 23 million years ago multiple volcanoes erupted to form what would become Pinnacles National Park. What remains is an unique and dramatic landscape shaped by faults and erosion over millennia.

Join us for an amazing weekend of rock climbing with picturesque wildlife, bountiful wildflowers, and stunning views, all the while training and honing your skills on the wall!

    Highlights include:

      • Climbing in one of the most beautiful National Parks in California
      • Expert guides to coach you on proper technique
      • A fully supported campsite with gourmet meals
      • All climbing gear is provided - just bring your sense of adventure!
      • Perfect for those who have never climbed before, for those ready to take their indoor climbing skills to the next level, or for those who are newer to outdoor climbing and have never climbed at Pinnacles!

    Participants under the age of 18 can currently not be accommodated for this activity. We appreciate your understanding.
