WHO WE ARE
Our guiding pillars, ROCK:
Routesetting
Sportrock has some of the best routesetters in the country and one of only a handful of level 5 USA Climbing Certified Routestters. They work hard to set the most creative, challenging, diverse, and fun boulder problems and routes. With all of our expansions over the years, we offer state of the art climbing terrain with the tallest walls in the Metro DC area.
Original
We are one of the first indoor rock climbing gyms in the country. Sportrock was founded in 1994 by a group of climbers who outgrew a home wall in Zich’s Garage, an unused auto garage shop. Even after 5 expansions over 26 years, we have stayed true to being a climbing gym rooted in top-notch climbing and building a strong community of climbers.
Community
Whether it’s within the walls of Sportrock or on a larger scale reaching out to various audiences. We use rock climbing as a platform to expand our community. We host a weekly Parkinsons Group, adaptive climbing, at-risk youths, fundraisers for various causes are just some examples.
