Overview

Rock climbing in Gatineau Park

The five rock faces open where climbing is permitted are the following:

  • Home Cliff — Centre
  • Three faces at the Twin Ribs site: Down Under, Eastern Block and Left Rib
  • Western Cwm — West

In the winter, ice climbing is permitted when there is enough snow covering the ground and when there is ice on the climbing surfaces. This way, climbers will not damage the vegetation on the ground, on the climbing surfaces and on the rock itself.

Climbers must use only official climbing routes and those trails that are open, and must respect sector closures.
