Why Climb with Us?

Most New England guide services focus on states with larger walls, such as New Hampshire, Connecticut, and New York. While those states have great climbing, it can be less convenient to drive up to three hours to experience rock climbing instruction. Greater Boston Climbing School was formed to bridge that gap and provide outdoor climbing trips, instruction, and experiences at crags that are convenient drives from the heart of Boston. Some of our crags are even walkable from a T stop. All packages are taught by a certified AMGA Single Pitch Instructor, so you can feel confident that your instructor has studied and been tested for the terrain you will be climbing in.

In our guided outdoor climbing trips, you can get private lessons while learning about some local crags. The benefit of these trips is that they are private days of climbing lessons, tailored to you. You can also hire an instructor to take care of all of the ropes so that you can focus on climbing. These rock climbing days will help you gage your interest in moving out of the gym. In our outdoor climbing courses, you can learn skills that will allow you to climb without an instructor present. These packages will give you the tools to confidently explore other crags further away. So they can serve a wide range of people and are great rock climbing for beginners, rock climbing for kids, or rock climbing for experienced adults.
