The Climbers is a 1927 silent film produced and distributed by Warner Bros. and presumed lost.[3] The film stars Irene Rich and was directed by Paul Stein. It was based on Clyde Fitch's 1901 play of the same name, but bore scant resemblance to it.[4][5]

Previous versions of Fitch's play had been made, under the same name, in 1915 with Gladys Hanson and also in 1919 with Corinne Griffith.[6]
