Mar 06 - Nov 20
Day at the Rocks
High Rocks/Ralph Stover State Park
This is the easiest way around to start climbing outside. Reservations are required, and events tend to sell out quickly, so don't wait!
THIS SUMMER, PRG IS OFFERING 4 WEEKS OF GUIDED CLIMBING EXPEDITIONS!
STARTING WITH 1 WEEK AT THE RED RIVER GORGE NEAR SLADE, KY,
FOLLOWED BY 3 MORE WEKS AT THE NEW RIVER GORGE NEAR FAYETTEVILLE, WV
CHOOSE 1, 2, 3, OR 4 WEEKS OF CLIMBING!
RED RIVER GORGE
Our longest running expedition, this trip is our annual trek to the premier sport climbing crag in the East.
Whether training for Nationals or just looking to improve your leading & experience real rock, the Red is home to more than 1500 routes of all ability levels that will keep any young climber occupied for many years. In fact, the bulk of our climbers return year after year to tag new projects and eat the best Pizza in Kentucky!
Led by PRG Owner, Dave Rowland, Program Director, Tom Meehan, and a staff of experienced coaches and guides, climbers learn to improve their skills and experience world-class climbing!

NEW RIVER GORGE
Our “New” favorite destination, climbers will be able to test their technical abilities on some of the best sandstone on the planet!
Located in Fayetteville, WV, the New River Gorge is one of the best climbing areas in the East Coast! With over 3000 routes to choose from–great top-roping, lead climbing, and bouldering–the New has the greatest variety of routes, for all skill levels, of any climbing area in the country. Skills covered include basic rappelling, knot tying, and basic rope skills, leave no trace hiking and camping ethics, and general outdoor climbing safety.
Climbers will also, of course, have a chance to test their climbing skills on real rock, learning improved technique and a repertoire of moves that will improve their overall ability and confidence as climbers.
