Alex Honnold
Professional adventure rock climber known for his audacious free-solo ascents of America's biggest cliffs.
What it is
Explore Alex’s stomping ground by climbing his favourite routes of El Capitan, including the infamous Freerider route featured in his ‘Free Solo’ documentary and the route of the Nose, on which Alex broke the speed record earlier this year. Nestled in California’s Sierra Nevada mountains, Yosemite National Park is famed for its giant, ancient sequoia trees and for Tunnel View, the iconic vista of towering Bridalveil Fall and the granite cliffs of El Capitan and Half Dome. Within its nearly 1,200 square miles of vast wilderness, waterfalls and grand meadows the scenery here is hard to beat.
Where it is
Yosemite Valley is the most famous rock climbing area in America, which is dominated by the granite big walls of El Capitan, Half Dome and Sentinel.
Who it is for
