Organized Group Rock or Ice Climbing
Scout groups, camp groups, church groups, school groups, etc. Join one of the hundreds of organizations that have chosen Acadia Mountain Guides Climbing School to provide a day of fun and skills on the rocks. The spectacular coast of Maine is the perfect location to bring a group and adventure. Rock climb one day then sea kayak, bike, hike, or play mini-golf. Acadia National Park and the nearby town of Bar Harbor offers a full selection of activities for groups to choose from.
Acadia Mountain Guides are among the best in the country at facilitating a climbing experience for small groups. We believe in fully involving the participants as much as possible – climbing, rappelling, belaying and we often feature cool closure activities such as a tyrolean rope traverse over the Atlantic if desired. Participants will get much more than an “exposure to climbing” and will not spend their day waiting around to climb. We have seen how many other climbing schools do it and we guarantee you will have an active and engaging experience climbing with us. Acadia Mountain Guides Climbing School led the way in developing the nationally recognized curriculum which focuses on teaching state of the art technical and educational methods for teaching climbing to individuals and groups.
Group programs are available in Acadia National Park, Clifton (near Bangor), Camden, in the Kennebec River and Penobscot River areas (works well when combined with a rafting trip or a hike up Katahdin), Moosehead Lake region, central New Hampshire and the White Mountains (North Conway, Franconia Notch, Pinkham Notch, Rumney).
Available by appointment daily. To make a reservation or find out more call 1-888-232-9559 or email climb@acadiamountainguides.com
