Durango Rock Climbing

Located just north of Durango on highway 550, X-Rock is hard to miss and is named after a striking pair of cracks that intersect on the walls face creating a large ‘X’ which is a fun and fantastic climbing feature. Although the climbing area is named after this notable wall, climbing isn’t limited to this face and there is an abundance of climbs suitable for all ages and ability levels. X-Rock is our most popular destination for climbing groups and families looking to spend some quality time outside without a long and challenging approach.

Located on the eastern side of the Animas Valley up CR 250 the East Animas climbing area is perched well above the Animas Valley and offers stunning, unobstructed views of Durango and the surrounding area. After a steep but short approach, you are greeted with a fantastic variety of climbs. From single pitch sport lines to multi-pitch trad climbs East Animas is a great fit for the intermediate to advanced climber looking to do some fun climbing, push their limits, and learn from an AMGA educated & trained Rock Guide.
