Climbing guide Rhein-Main-Gebiet

Before there were climbing halls on every corner, generations of climbers from the Rhine-Main area made their first attempts at walking in the Morgenbachtal. In contrast to today, novice climbers did not learn how to turn and grab hold, but how to stand firmly on small steps.

Only in a few climbing areas in Germany can you find such a rich potential of easy and medium-difficulty routes in a beautiful landscape. Just a few kilometers away, Germany's highest non-Alpine rock face, the Rotenfels, offers a stark contrast to the lovely Genussteigen in the Morgenbach Valley. High above the Nahe, adventure and break specialists get their money's worth here - of course: beginners and indoor migrants have not lost anything on the Rotenfels. In addition to these two highlights, rock seekers will find many more hidden climbing gems in Hunsrück, Taunus and Spessart: the bizarre Nikolausfelsen high above the Rheingau vineyards with its Riss specialties, the nice Kirner Dolomites, which are far less powerful than their namesake, the Lorsbacher Wand , where the Frankfurt scene once stretched its fingers, the toy-like Eschbacher cliffs and many, many more.

And if all this is too natural for you: Frankfurt can also do buildering! The quay wall at the Ruhrorter Werft is a pretty special place for fearless mainwater soloists. So: There are no more excuses.
