ABOUT Eldo Main

This digital Eldo Main climbing guidebook gives you GPS navigation, verified topos, and beta for hundreds of climbs. Explore classics and hidden gems with offline access to maps, directions, and beta videos. Whether it's your first visit or fiftieth, KAYA makes your Eldo Main days smoother, safer, and more dialed.

For annual State Parks Pass holders, the entrance is free. Expect to make a reservation if entering on weekends or holidays between May 15-Sep 15. Once inside the canyon, there is limited parking along the length of the road, although it shouldn’t be an issue during colder months.
