Dreaming of climbing real rock walls in nature? If you’re already familiar with indoor climbing, outdoor crags offer a new experience – more challenging in many ways – and a sense of adventure.
Climbing in nature introduces elements that play a lesser role on indoor walls. The adventure begins with choosing a suitable crag and making the approach to the rock. Climbing on natural stone often feels more demanding than indoor walls, which adds its own special appeal to this amazing sport.
Climbing is a deeply holistic activity that develops both body and mind, while also offering the calming effect of the surrounding nature and the social, encouraging, and supportive atmosphere of climbing. At its best, a climbing trip becomes a joyful adventure in a beautiful natural setting.
