The tallest cliff in the Eastern U.S., Laurel Knob was the first acquisition in the CCC's history. Big and wild, Laurel is home to fantastic slab and water groove climbing. Laurel's remote location and height make for a truly unique experience and it's likely you will be the only party on the cliff, or at least it can feel that way. The approach is long, but it's well worth the walk. Please help us keep our good relations with the local landowners by approaching from Panthertown Valley only.

If you like classic traditional NC climbing and haven't yet been to Laurel, you need to get out there at least once.
