Climbing Near Spring Hill, Kansas

Boulders and walls of varying sizes, from overhanging cave sections to slab highball on the most solid limestone in the area. Upon arriving at the Overland Park Arboretum pay the $3 entry fee, take the sculpture garden trail to the Cottonwood Trail (CT). Follow the CT until you meet the fork of the Bluff Loop and West Trails. Go through the gate with the green sign and follow the trail to the right until the fork of the Rocky Ridge and Bluff Loop trails. The different boulders and walls can be easily seen from the trail and extend for much of the loop of the trail.

Great warmup boulder or first time climbing outside. Fun, easy, overhanging problems. The first boulder that you come across after the junction with the Bluff Loop.

lots of overhanging limestone walk even further south along the bluff trail after a short walk the cliff will appear on the right after a bend in the trail
