The spots.
I know them.
Eifel, Pfalz, Taunus, Odenwald, Schwarzwald: I'll show you where the best rock is. You don't have to find it yourself.
Five regions.
All with real spots I know personally and visit regularly.
Taunus
Quartzite & slate on Frankfurt's doorstep
I know hardly anyone from the Rhine-Main area I can't show at least one good spot in the Taunus. Quartzite and slate, shady forests, a short drive. Ideal for day trips.
Eifel
Basalt in volcano country
The Eifel surprises me again and again. Where we boulder it's basalt: volcanic rock, quiet, little traffic, great friction. One of my favourite spots for groups.
Pfalz
Red sandstone, wine-country flair
The Pfalz sandstone is soft, warm and grippy. Perfect for beginners, but with enough to offer advanced climbers too. Plus: great food in the region.
Odenwald
Granite, big blocks, plenty of variety
The Odenwald is large and has plenty to offer: tall blocks, crash-pad-friendly landing zones, quiet spots off the tourist trails. I come here regularly.
Schwarzwald
Sandstone near Calw, nature at its purest
My first choice in the south for weekend trips. The sandstone near Calw has a special quality, barely any other boulderers, genuine natural character. Ideal when you really want to get away.

Day trip or taster course: what's the difference?
None at all, it's the same offer: an outdoor day trip (€79 per person), whether you're outdoors for the first time or already have experience. I pick the spots and lines to match your level and coach you live. For complete beginners it's the perfect first taste, for experienced climbers a tour on their level.
Can I request a region that isn't on the list?
Of course. I also know spots in the Spessart, Rhön and other regions. Just give me a call and we'll see what fits.
How many people can come along?
A maximum of 8. That way I can really coach everyone, and we sometimes have a spot all to ourselves.
What do I need for a day trip?
Climbing shoes, weatherproof clothing, water and snacks. I bring the crash pads. No gear of your own needed.
Get out there. I know where.
Pick a date or give me a call and I'll tell you quickly which region suits you.
