It’s a big month for Alex Honnold.
In an unexpected turn of events, the world-renowned rock climber is briefly switching gears from summiting peaks to hosting his own travel show. Yep, you heard that right. The five-part “Get a Little Out There” series will premiere next year across the Outside network.
Plans for his new show come just a week after Mr. Free Solo announced plans to star in a two-hour live TV show on Netflix in 2026, during which he will scale the tallest skyscraper in Taiwan without the use of safety ropes.
In partnership with Travel Nevada and Outside, Honnold will take viewers across his home state, shifting focus from extreme climbs to everyday adventures, curiosity, and connection.
“Involvement in this series is awesome for me,” said Honnold in a news statement. “My love for adventure matches the spirit of Nevada. Red Rock has been a huge part of my life, but Nevada still surprises me with how much there is to see and do. I’m excited to explore the hidden corners of this state and share what makes it so special.”
From stargazing in Great Basin National Park to mining for turquoise in central Nevada, the new series follows Honnold—in his van—as he checks off bucket-list adventures. Sprinkled with strange roadside attractions dotting Nevada’s highways, Honnold’s new show combines exploration and culture to alter our view of the world, producers say.
“From cowboy poets and clown hotels to Basque food and turquoise mining, Nevada’s unique culture experiences are as unexpected as they are awesome,” said Sam Moulton, vice president of creative strategy and solutions at Outside. “The state is also way wilder than you think, home to remote climbing crags, world-class mountain biking, and everything in between, making it ideal for Outside’s network. And Alex is the perfect host to show us the state through his eyes, as curious as he is up for any adventure.”
Of his Nevada home, Honnold has said, “There’s the best concentration of climbing in the country around Vegas, which is why I live here.” Southern Nevada alone is home to more than 3,400 routes.
“Even on the worst days, in the worst weather, you can climb outside if you’re motivated enough,” Honnold said.
