Denver and Golden sit at the gateway to some of the most accessible and varied climbing on the entire Front Range. Clear Creek Canyon winds through the foothills just minutes from Golden with a concentrated corridor of sport and trad routes on limestone and granite, while the South Platte corridor stretches south towards the Pikes Peak region with sunny granite crags and one of the longest climbing seasons in Colorado.

The range of climbing within an hour of Denver is hard to match anywhere in the United States. Approachable single pitch routes for newer climbers alongside technical crack systems and multi-pitch objectives for those ready to push further. Colorado Climbing Company's mountain guides know both areas intimately and can match the day to your experience and goals whether it's your first time outdoors or you're working toward leading independently.

Denver and Golden make an ideal base for a Front Range climbing trip. World-class crags within minutes of great restaurants, breweries, and everything Colorado's urban corridor has to offer. Our mountain guides handle the logistics so you can focus on the climbing.
