What climbers say again and again
“There are a few outhouses on the main trail, but bring your own hand sanitizer and toilet paper to be on the safe side - they may well be out.”
“Routes range from beginner to no thank you and there are plenty of each spread out over the many walls throughout the valley.”
From the reviews
This place keeps getting better and better every time I come back. It’s great for hiking even if you don’t want to climb. Trails and routes are very well maintained. Very much worth the price of parking.
Muir Valley has an astounding collection of climbable walls, tough but really great hikes, and beauty on a scale almost unimaginable in comparison to the urban Midwest. Routes range from beginner to no thank you and there are plenty of each spread out over the many walls throughout the valley.
Great spot! Went to hike not climb, but on a slow early spring day loved it here. Definitely worth the small parking fee. Trails were maintained wonderfully, staff was extremely helpful. Wife and daughter loved it as well.
What an amazing place to climb. Well maintained walls mean safer climbs. My husband and I are beginner climbers and found so many climbs that were exactly our level. Tons of fun.
