Famed Climbing Film Tour Reel Rock Turns 20

Climbing’s biggest stories are coming to the big screen this fall as Reel Rock 20 celebrates the grit, passion, and progression of the climbing world. The annual climbing film tour returns with four films showcasing athletes pushing the limits of what’s possible, from towering alpine walls to world-class sport routes.

This year’s lineup features Olympic gold medalist Janja Garnbret taking on Bibliographie 5.15c in pursuit of the route’s first female ascent, while alpinist Colin Haley attempts a solo winter ascent of Patagonia’s iconic Cerro Torre. Adaptive climber Ben Mayforth, who has spina bifida, redefines what’s possible in his pursuit of 5.13, and Michaela Kiersch embarks on a global sending spree.

From bold alpine missions to powerful stories of perseverance, Reel Rock 20 promises a celebration of the people, places, and possibilities that make climbing so compelling. Catch it on the big screen this fall and experience the next chapter of climbing cinema. Here’s a look back at every film from every tour: the Reel Rock collection.
