Lower Gorge Access provides entry to a popular rock climbing and fishing destination in the Owens River Gorge, featuring over 165 climbing routes ranging from 5. 9 to 5. 12d in difficulty across multiple sub-areas like Diamond Face and Warning Signs.

Access is via the power plant road with parking at the south area; note that public access is restricted during high pulse flow releases (up to 680 cfs) for safety reasons, and foot access into the gorge is extremely limited due to steep terrain.

The area is managed by LADWP and offers day-use recreation including fishing, rock climbing, and birding in a remote canyon setting.
