The Muskoka area offers some great rock to discover. Due to a relatively small local climbing community many areas are not well developed and certainly not busy for the most part. This means there are plenty of first ascents and climbing areas to be discovered. Before you head out be attentive of climbs which may lie on private property. You may find that the right approach with the land owner will find you a great opportunity at a new climb. If you do log a new spot please share your Beta with us for future climbers. Currently a few areas are open to the public as they lie on crown land. Good spots which offer bolted sport climbing are McCrae Lake, The Devil’s Face on Skeleton Lake, and the Rosseau cliffs of hwy 141 at Skeleton bay
You've seen the SWAT team, army and superheroes do it. Imagine the adrenaline of whisking down an 80-foot cliff face with the wind in your hair. You control your speed of descent. Join us on the edge of a cliff and be a superhero for the day. The rock face is ideal for this adventure and the view is breathtaking. We provide the instruction and equipment. You provide the enthusiasm.
