Rock Climbing in Squamish

While you can climb April through October, July and August are generally the driest months. Keep in mind that the Pacific Northwest is famous for its rainfall. Also, depending on how you feel about climbing in the cold, sometimes you can climb year-round.

You’ll meet up with your guide, go over gear and beta, and then plan on what routes you want to ascend, or what techniques you want to focus on most, depending on your skill level and course.

Group sizes are usually between 1 – 3 people with one instructor. Also, remember that the costs decrease as the group grows, so it’s the perfect opportunity to climb with friends and family.

While Squamish receives a fair amount of rain, it’s usually on the lighter side. Of course, it can pour too. Be sure to ask your guiding service about their policies in the event bad weather disrupts your day climbing.

Squamish is about an hour’s drive north of Vancouver, BC.
