Discover one of the South Island’s main rock climbing destinations with a guided climbing experience in Wānaka. Head to Hospital Flat, an area that boasts thousands of established rock climbs throughout the grade range, just a 20-minute drive from Wānaka town center.
Set in the beautiful, idyllic setting of the Matukituki Valley, the gateway to Mount Aspiring National Park, this venue provides the opportunity to develop further technical rope skills or techniques and strategies to attempt harder climbs.
Most Wānaka rock climbs are single-pitch sport climbs protected by fixed bolts, but there are also some multi-pitch and traditionally protected climbs.
Whether you are focused on developing your own skills or getting shown around the best spots by a local guide, this experience is perfect for all levels. Introduce the family to rock climbing with options and activities for all ages of children.
