Rock climbing is a full-body workout, and you'll need the power of your glutes, along with your leg muscles, to propel yourself upward. Lynchburg has indoor and outdoor options for amateurs and experienced climbers.
The award-winning City of Lynchburg Department of Parks and Recreation offers so much: 17 parks, with organized and open areas for recreation, picnicking, fishing, canoeing and kayaking, and children’s play, over 40 miles of trails that wind through Lynchburg, & 9 recreation centers, which support planned group programs, birthdays, baby showers, community meetings, and more! They offer classes and programs year-round including camps for basketball, soccer, tennis, and more.
Riveredge Park, just across the 5th street bridge from Downtown Lynchburg offers boat access to the James River, as well as an outdoor climbing spot for experienced climbers (established 2018).
Climb, discover and connect at Central Virginia’s premier indoor rock climbing gym and outdoor guide service. Rise Up Climbing is in downtown Lynchburg.
