Thuringia is the land of rock diversity! From the heights of the Thuringian Forest, crowned by granite and porphyry, we descend into the valleys where we find conglomerate climbs that cannot be found anywhere else in Germany in this shape and steepness.
But that's not all, because first-class perforated lime is also available to Fingerstrom disciples, both in the west of the Free State (Bad Liebenstein) and in the east around Saalfeld and Pößneck. But the north doesn't have to hide either and has plenty of sandstone.
The Eichsfeld, for which no climbing spots were previously known, has moved onto the vertical map of Germany with a bang. Take a look, bring the mats and have fun climbing in nature!

A glossary explains the most important bouldering terms in a tongue-in-cheek manner and the rain list shows weather-safe spots. GPS data and QR codes for the climbing rocks and the corresponding parking spaces for navigation. Many climbing and landscape photographs make the book a feast for the eyes and an attractive gift for others too. A modern bouldering guide in the "state of the art"
