About Us


Queer Climbing Cleveland (QCC) exists to connect North East Ohio climbers and increase access to climbing and mountaineering for the LGBTQIA+ community. Through hosting, co-organizing and co-sponsoring events, QCC seeks to create safer spaces where new climbers may enter the sport, and where seasoned climbers may flourish. We do so as an effort to combat discrimination and prejudice in the sport, as well as to foster diversity, and help make the crag, as well as the gym, safer and more inclusive for all.

Come climb with us!
