The views
are epic.
Ultra-High-Def 3D vertically-scanned climbing topos are changing the way we approach the ascent. Giving climbers and stewards the pre-flight visualization they need to Venture Into The Known™.
We've collected some beautiful rocks along the way.

Castleton Tower

Moab UT. U.S. Elev. 6,656′

Our vision:
Better beta for all.
Our mission is expansive—and it isn't simple. Rather than repackaging publicly available data or selling community-sourced notes back to the community, we're creating something better: A sustainable model that rewards contributors and creates beta on a never-before-seen level.

Map

Map and create the next-gen of immersive, interactive 3D climbing navigation tools, paired with the best beta for more epic adventures.

Connect

Connecting and collecting data together with local experts, guides, and stewards to create better beta for all.

Preserve

Preserve climbing areas in partnership with stewards to provide clear ecological, indigenous, and ethical guidance and markers.

Provide

Provide meaningful and sustainable resources and funding to local climbing experts, stewards, and organizations.

Community sourced, community driven. Our mission is to capture the world’s most amazing spaces in 3D to power the next generation of climbing experiences. To do that, we need a dedicated community of climbers to help grow our efforts. You can play a pivotal role in propelling Rock Garden to become the gold standard guidebook for today and tomorrow.

Desktop Access

Prefer to browse routes and plan your climbs using your computer? With desktop access, you'll be able to browse our entire catalog of 3D models and route beta on any computer with internet access.

Approaches & Walk-Offs

One of the most prevalent challenges for climbers is finding their way to and from new climbs. Using our 3D data, you'll see clear and precise directions so you can spend less time finding and more time sending.

Route Drawing

With route drawing tools, you'll be able to add new routes or update existing routes on any 3D scene in the app.

Sun & Shade Modeling

See which routes on a crag will get shade and sun at the times you plan to climb.

3D GPS Navigation

See exactly where you are in our 3D views to more quickly find your way from the trailhead to your destination.

Route Previews
