Seneca Rocks is a premier climbing area that is rich with history and best known for the incredible multi-pitch trad routes that offer an old-school climbing feel. It is impressive, but intimidating and requires confident gear placement. The approach is steep and exposed- with some routes that require climbing a 5.2-5.5 to reach. The rock can be loose so be sure to bring your helmet. Camping, gear and guides are available at Seneca Shadows Campground or Yokum’s in town. The South Peak holds several classics and sees the most traffic. Climb the steep stairs known as the stairmaster. Follow the talus field where things become exposed. Access Triple S from Luncheon Ledge.
