Homer Bluffs

The Homer Bluffs sport some of the most picturesque and aesthetic climbs on the Kenai Peninsula. Due to the ever-changing weather conditions, the routes here are often difficult to predict.

Access to these routes is made by two options. The quickest approach is gained by accessing a short trail off Saltwater Drive from the Sterling Highway. Rappel Close to Home to the beach and walk the bluff to the many route choices in this area. The alternative is to park at the Bishop’s Beach access point and hike the beach but that is a long approach.

alert icon ALERT:If parking on Saltwater Drive, please be mindful of the neighborhood and private property. If too many parked cars are present, it is recommended that you park on the Sterling Highway and walk back to the trail access. Do what you can to protect continued access to these bluffs for all climbers in the future by not encroaching on the limited resources of this area.

alert icon ALERT: Do not get caught by the tide. Make sure you are aware of the current tides in the Homer area as water levels do rise to the base of the ice on a few routes and can caught off access along the beach bluff climbs.
