Guided Rock Climbing

Southern Africa has many stunning rock climbing venues, where routes can be enjoyed on world class rock, in beautiful wilderness settings and in year-round sunshine! Also view our section on Guided climbing near Durban.

PEAK HIGH has guided many clients in most of the classic areas of the region. Customized trips are put together for anything from one to up to three clients at a time.
Please feel free to contact us for any of the following, free Information Sheets:

  • Cederberg - This area is home to SA's finest rock climbing, with routes of all grades from one to eight pitches in length. An added bonus is that it is just 3 hours north of Cape Town.
  • Magaliesberg - Second only to the Cederberg, this is a must if visiting the Johannesburg region, being only 1,5 hrs drive from the metropolis. All grades, from one to four pitches in length are available.
  • Table Mountain - World class, multi-pitch routes right in the centre of the Mother City, surely the most splendid, urban climbing venue in the world.

Regular client, Alan Mc Ewan had this to say after his 2002 trip:

“ My key recollections though would be:

  • five star routes in the Cederberg such as Energy Crisis / Supplement, Quite Something and Knobless Robot. I look forward to climbing them again and many other routes there;
  • gob-smacking climbing on Table Mountain. Jacob's Ladder went into my top ten climbs with a bullet!.”

Spitzkop, Namibia - This is a stunning granite massif located in the Namib desert, well worth visiting if only for the fantastic desert scenery. Both traditional and sport climbing routes abound.

Everest Resort - One of South Africa's best sport climbing venues, it includes routes of up to six pitches in the beautiful, sweeping Free State landscape. And only 2,5 hrs drive from Johannesburg.

Morgan Bay - This is a sea cliff just north of the city of East London. It consists of some of the finest rock on the sub-continent. It is all short trad climbing with easy access. A great place to visit.
