Endless Wall - West Virginia

The New River Gorge’s "Endless Wall" offers an astonishing view of the Potomac Highlands. Known for its amazing trails and challenging climbs this 1,000 foot exquisite face of rock is an adventurer’s dream.  New to rock climbing?  Companies like New River Mountain Guides provide a rock climbing school and guide services to ensure your adventure is every thing you imagined, and that your West Virginia climb or hike is done safely.

The gorge is full of rugged masses of rock featuring countless cracks, cliffs and face routes in what seems like an endless supply of Seneca rock.  The National Park Service assumed protection of the region in the late 70’s to ensure this wonderful area can be enjoyed for many years to come.  Its spectacular views of the New River are like nothing you’ve ever seen …and the enthusiastic screams from the whitewater rafters hundreds of feet below add to the exhilaration of your West Virginia adventure. 

A destination for climbers from around the world, routes are usually 5.0 or more difficult.  There’s climbing for the beginner in the New River Gorge as well.  When you’re planning your West Virginia rock climbing and hiking trip plan to visit the Endless Wall…it will provide an endless supply of memories!  Book your New River Gorge hotel and start planning your trip of a lifetime now!  We look forward to having you at the New River Inn.
