What you get on this adventure:
What’s not included:
In order to participate in these guided rock climbing adventures in Colorado, you need a good level of fitness and stamina to access the climbs and climb them. The approach is approximately 5-30 minutes on uneven terrain.
Rock climbing is all about using good movement technique rather than muscling up a cliff using brute strength. To ensure you have a fun day, your guide will choose routes that best suit your skill and fitness level.
These two-day camps are for beginner to intermediate climbers looking to develop existing skills and build community with other like-minded women. Participants will be split into groups depending on experience level.
Colorado crags have plenty of options for beginner climbers. Whether you’ve never climbed before or are transitioning from the gym to outdoor climbing, your guide will customize the day to suit your skill level and objectives. With a guide by your side, you’ll learn something new, stay safe on the rocks, and most importantly, have fun!
For intermediate climbers, Colorado has loads of routes to spend the day on. Your guide will discuss your objectives as a group, and in two days, you’ll progress your multi-pitch skills with female AMGA-certified guides. Let your guides plan the weekend so you can focus on developing your skills and bond with other female participants while climbing the classic routes or best hidden gems the area has to offer.
All technical climbing equipment will be provided by your guiding service. However, if you have your own gear, feel free to bring it. You’ll need:

To get to Colorado Crags, most people fly into Denver International Airport, about an hour away from the rock climbing locations. From there, you can rent a car or take a taxi to your accommodation. Both rock climbing locations are positioned just outside of Boulder.
Once you and your guide agree on the details of your itinerary, your guide will suggest the best place to meet, whether that’s at the guide shop or a predetermined location. The guide will choose the appropriate terrain dependent on conditions and the ability of the group.
