Leavenworth is a diverse area. At least eight different crags lie within a ten mile radius of the picturesque "Bavarian" town after which the area is named. With the exception of Castle and Midnight Rocks which tower above the Tumwater Canyon of the Wenatchee River, most of the other cliffs are found up the Icicle Canyon southwest of town. There is something for everyone, from single pitch climbs of all difficulties found alongside the road, to classic multi-pitch routes such as Outer Space (5.8+) on the 800-foot-high Snow Creek Wall. Castle Rock itself has over sixty routes, ranging in difficulty from 5.3 to 5.12. Varied climbing, excellent rock, short approaches, and great weather all combine to make Leavenworth a fine choice for the beginner and expert alike.

It is easy to arrange a trip for yourself or a group of friends. Such a trip can be a series of climbs, a skills course concluding with an ascent, or a trip that combines skills development or review with exciting series of ascents. And if you are coming on your own but would like to climb with others, you can request that we match you with other climbers of similar background and interest. Fees are based on the ratio of climbers to guide. Please call or e-mail us to set up a climb or design an itinerary.
