Rock climbing is often mistaken for a dangerous sport that requires brute strength and a fearless attitude. Although it appears very strenuous, you'll quickly learn just how safe and mindful this wonderful sport really is. Your instructor and guide Chris Baumann will design a course to match your ability and can accommodate almost any fitness level.

Learning to rock climb in the beautiful Lake Tahoe area is a perfect way to connect with your kids, family and friends and a wonderful way to experience summertime in the Sierra. Build self-confidence, overcome fear and create life-long friendships. Climbing lessons are also great for:

  • Mindfulness
  • Self Discovery
  • Team Building
  • Family Adventure
  • Rock Climbing for Kids!
  • Parent-teen Connection
  • Celebrations & Special Occasions

Learn to rock climb at Donner Summit—heart of the Northern Sierra—in a scenic alpine environment. Conveniently located just off Interstate 80 near Truckee, California in North Lake Tahoe. Just 45 miles from Reno and about an hour and a half drive from Sacramento!
