Helping Children with Disabilities Reach New Heights

Adaptive Climbing Festival 2019

Often times adaptive climbers do not have many or even any other adaptive climbers in their community. We know it’s hard to do it alone in climbing and frankly it’s simply more fun if you can work on things with others, problem solve, and share our experiences. In that spirit we’ve partnered with Adaptive Adventures to host The Adaptive Climbing Festival. With this festival we hope to create a gathering place for adaptive climbers from around the country in order to give them the opportunity to meet, climb, share experiences, and learn from one another.
