What's inside
“Great bouldering, would definitely come back, but I was locked out at 8:56 when it closes at 9:00.”
From the reviews
Love going to Boatrock - great climbing with a wide range of routes across the spectrum. HOWEVER, beware of break-ins and other undesirables loitering and not climbing that hang out in the parking lot.
Amazing place to boulder and explore near Atlanta. Pet friendly. You need a gate code to enter(SCC website). If you like slab climbing and granite I would 10/10 recommend, if you don’t like those things, well it’s probably because you aren’t any good at them so I would still 10/10 recommend. Lol
Great for bouldering and also for easy wilderness walks. Very pretty area. There’s plenty of boulders to scramble on so climbing experience isn’t necessary to enjoy this park.
This is one of Atlanta's best natural treasures. For you rock climbers, the rocks here present some tough bouldering challenges. I spotted three Catesby's Trilliums in bloom on my visit on April 15.
