Sunset on the Rocks

Visit Chattanooga has a fantastic lineup of tours available to WITS attendees. These day tours are only for attendees with a confirmed ticket in their name to WITS 2026.

Chattanooga is widely recognized as a premier, world-class climbing destination...a true sandstone capital with an unmatched mix of sport, traditional, and bouldering routes just minutes from downtown. At the heart of that culture is High Point Climbing & Fitness, founded in Chattanooga and deeply rooted in the region’s outdoor and climbing community.

Join High Point’s expert guides for a guided climb at Sunset Rock, one of the most iconic climbing areas in the Southeast. This experience offers hands-on climbing instruction on classic sandstone routes while weaving in stories of Sunset Rock’s and the conservation ethics that protect it. The climb includes sweeping views of the Tennessee River Gorge, Lookout Valley, and the distant Cumberland Plateau - an earned perspective that defines Chattanooga climbing.
