If you’re passionate about climbing, it’s an excellent way to see the world. Practicing your skills in different terrains will make you a better climber. The views are a bonus.

So whether you are an amateur climber getting started or an expert looking to make history, you can’t beat these rock climbing spots.

Rock climbing in the legendary Atlas Mountains doesn’t get any better than in Todra Gorge. You’ll have over 450 routes on the red limestone cliffs that make up the gorge, including some great multi-pitch climbs. 

The deepness of the gorge will protect you from the heat of the Moroccan sun, which means you can enjoy this spot year-round without having to worry about snow or inclement weather. 

This won’t be the easiest spot to get to, but the experience will be well worth it.

Sports climbers hail from all over for the Bluffs’ crags, of which there are over 50. Climbs here usually attract those who prefer vertical, though there are some angled climbs you can do as well. 

The Bluffs are still wild and rugged, which is a big part of their appeal, but it also means they are better suited for experienced climbers rather than enthusiastic beginners. If you’re near the park and eager to get into the sport, however, you can find a couple of easier routes. 

Try to visit in spring or fall, unless you’re into climbing in extreme weather.
