Trad Climbing Course Ettringen
6-8
Just north of Koblenz lies the Ettringen climbing area. Made up of several old basalt quarries, it is known for climbing through corner cracks and splitter cracks — the perfect place to learn trad climbing!

Depending on the type of bad weather, the course will take place. In case of an occasional shower, you can simply climb. If rain is forecast for the entire weekend, we are forced to reschedule or cancel the weekend.
In that case, be sure to contact us. Then we'll see what's possible.
If there are no options, we must fall back on our cancellation policy.
Yes. You are welcome to visit the campsite where our Base Camp is located from 1:00 p.m.

There are several reasons for this. We are very aware of how much CO2 emissions we generate by driving our truck to the Ardennes ourselves and having participants travel by car. We already encourage carpooling as much as possible, and we also try to offset our impact by not serving meat, as this too generates a significant amount of CO2 emissions. We climb outdoors in nature, and we want to enjoy that nature for as long as possible!
Additionally, we want to offer food that everyone can eat. Preparing two versions of the same meal is not possible given the size of our Food Truck. So we opt for a meal that everyone can enjoy!
