About our Destination

When people venture to Lake Tahoe, they often find themselves captivated by the breathtaking beauty of the region. While many are mesmerized by the stunning blue waters of the lake, others seek out a different kind of adventure - climbing! For nearly five decades, Donner Summit has been a cherished destination for climbers from all corners of the United States and beyond. With its rugged terrain and exhilarating routes, it's no wonder this area holds a special place in the hearts of outdoor enthusiasts everywhere.


Donner Summit, a crown jewel of Tahoe climbing, offers trad, sport, bouldering, and multi-pitch routes on gorgeous granite, with incredible views of Donner Lake and Truckee.


Professional Climber Adrian Ballinger says "“Donner is one of the easiest places to learn - it all!”. Although not much is known about the history of Donner climbing before 1970, rumor has it that Yosemite big wall pioneers Warren Harding and Royal Robbins, frequented the summit in preparation for the Yosemite climbing season - and now you can too!

Amazing trip with skilled professionals. If you are willing to get out there and do some discovery inward and outward, this trip is for you. And you can't beat the climbing out in the Gorge! I look forward to seeing this group again!
