The following bouldering guide describes a total of 13 areas with more than 1100 problems, graded between Fb1 and Fb8b+. Ultimately even these 13 areas should be understood as just a selection. A requirement  in this guide was to only include those areas that are truly worth publishing. Everything is on offer here, from the steep conglomerates of the Hüllochs to the rounded granite boulders of the Trusetal, from the pocketed limestone of the Saalfeld region to the incredibly structured and honeycombed sandstone found in the Eichsfeld land and from the classic and friendly porphyry in the Lauchagrund to finally the crazy basalt of the near Rhön Mountains. Bouldering here can never be boring! This guide should be an invitation to all who want to get out and move in such a grandiose landscape. Come and boulder! Thuringia looks forward to seeing you!

In the new edition, the authors present all climbing areas in the Ore Mountains in detail. Except for the Müglitz Valley in the Eastern Ore Mountains, that will be described in the climbing guidebook "Dresden and Surroundings", which will be published in spring 2023. In recent years, especially in the Westerzgebirge, some climbing areas - such as the Märchenwand area near Breitenbrunn - have been newly created, which are presented for the first time in the new climbing guide. The rock town of Silberbach, located in the Czech part of the Westerzgebirge, is also included for the first time. From the Auersberg area in the Westerzgebirge to the Katzenstein area in the central Erzgebirge, all climbing opportunities in the Erzgebirge are described in the new Glück Auf! guidebook.
