Before there were climbing gyms on every corner, generations of climbers from the Rhine-Main region took their first steps in the Morgenbach Valley. By the way, in contrast to today, novice climbers did not learn how to twist in and grab holds back then, but how to stand solidly on small footholds. Only in a few climbing areas in Germany can you find such a rich potential of easy and intermediate routes in magnificent scenic surroundings. The highest rock face in Germany, the Rotenfels, is 180 meters high and offers an enormous contrast to the lovely Genussteigen in the Morgenbach Valley just a few kilometers away. High above the Nahe River, adventure and break specialists get their money's worth here - quite clearly: beginners and indoor migrants have no business on the Rotenfels. In addition to these two highlights, rock seekers will find many hidden climbing gems in Hunsrück, Taunus and Spessart: the bizarre Nikolausfelsen high above the Rheingau vineyards with its crack specialties, the nice Kirner Dolomites, which come across as far less formidable than their namesakes, the Lorsbacher Wand, where the Frankfurt scene once stretched its fingers, the toy-like Eschbacher Klippen and many, many more. And if all this is too natural for you: Frankfurt can also do buildering! The quay wall at the Ruhrort shipyard is a pretty special place for fearless Mainwater solo specialists. So: there are no more excuses.Includes Vertical-Life App (digital, personalized version of the climbing guide for smartphone and tablet.

The legendary Odenwald hides numerous interesting rocks in its extensive forests, which not only make climbers' hearts beat faster, but also make geologists' eyes light up. In the eastern part, the so-called Sandstone Odenwald, there are numerous old quarries that can be used for climbing today. The sandstone is characterized by very beautiful crack lines that require climbing techniques that you don't necessarily learn in the gym. Some of the quarries, Heubach, Miltenberg and Hainstadt, to name but three, have been developed in such a way that you sometimes have to sink a wedge or cam into the crack instead of clipping a bolt. Crack climbing is not for everyone, but don't worry: the Odenwald has much more to offer. The pretty quartzite cliffs of Borstein and Hohenstein in the Lautertal valley, for example, or the huge Schriesheim quarry, high above the Rhine plain with walls spread over several terraces, patiently awaiting the hordes of climbers who descend on the weekends. And fans of more recent German climbing history can make a pilgrimage to the Heidelberger Riesenstein, where Weiland Reinhard Karl achieved his legendary arm strength. In addition to Miltenberg, two fine sandstone destinations in the Spessart have been added to the 8th edition: Bessenbach and Stadtprozelten are the perfect addition to the destinations in the Odenwald.Described areas: Schriesheim, Riesenstein, Ziegelhausen, Stiefelhütte, Jakobswand, Steigkopf, Lautertal (Hohenstein and Borstein), Brohmfels, Billerstein, Heubach, Silberwald, Hainstadt, Miltenberg, Stadtprozelten and Bessenbach.224 pages    Language GermanEdition 2024Panico Alpinverlag
