Rock Climbing
St. George Utah

Rock Climbing

The St. George Utah area is known throughout the world as one of the great climbing regions.

Zion National Park, the Virgin River Gorge and Snow Canyon State Park are filled with world-class climbing opportunities.


Climbing
There are many routes that are not completely vertical and lend themselves to climbing opportunities for less experienced rock climbers.
Longer Routes

In Zion National Park it is common for climbers to attempt long vertical routes of 1,000 to 2,000 feet.

Staging Areas

Longer climbs require a significant amount of equipment and even gear for sleeping overnight on a cliff-face.

Experienced or inexperience Climbing

Rock climbing is a technical activity but it can be accomplished by individuals with little or no experience. The safest method to try rock climbing is to go with a professional rock climbing company and allow them to provide a top-rope. Top-roping simply means that you are secured from a higher point and in case you slip you are held safely in place.
