Climbing Routes

Pinnacle Rock is a well-known spot for local climbers (and other users) though it receives little attention outside of Connecticut. Tucked away behind a quiet suburban neighborhood, Pinnacle offers a wide variety of routes, mostly in the easy to moderate range, on central Connecticut's signature basalt traprock. The cliffs are located on private land and access is a very sensitive issue here, so please be mindful, especially with regard to parking (there are lots of no parking signs) noise, and litter. From the bend in the road, take the jeep track to a concrete block, then turn right onto the trail. The left end of the cliffs appears after a short uphill walk, and more climbable rock continues on for several hundred yards to the right.
