Boulder Rock Climbing

Boulder’s variety of terrain, sunny weather and avid climbing community make it a world-class rock climbing town. Top Boulder rock climbing areas include the iconic Flatirons, the granite crags of Boulder Canyon and the legendary walls at Eldorado Canyon State Park (or “Eldo” to locals). Need a guide or a class? Look to pros like the Bob Culp Climbing School, Alpine World Ascents or the many other outfitters listed below. Searching for an indoor climbing wall? The Spot Bouldering Gym, Boulder Rock Club or Movement Climbing and Fitness are great choices. In fact, Boulder Rock Club was named one of the coolest indoor climbing gyms in the country.
