Philly Bouldering

About The Area

The Philadelphia area has many small climbing areas dispersed throughout the city. The biggest site is Wissahickon Valley Park which is home to Livezey Rock, Revolutionary Ridge, and the 100 Steps Boulders.  You can also find sites strewn throughout the city at Kelly Drive, Cobbs Creek, and Penny Pack Park to name a few. The majority of it is bouldering with a few roped options sprinkled in.
