Mention the word “Frankenjura” and your opposite stares at you glimply and says…oh! you mean the climbing area in the woods? Yes, hmmm ….. right! Many of the crags are all found hidden in the woods, which is why it’s rumoured to be Robin Hood’s hideout. Frankenjura is blessed with a huge bunch of crags spreaded all over. The majority of them are formed into 12-15m overhanging crags with thousands of finger pockets, dents and scarce bolts. Of course, not all crags are this way… but thats the impression you’re going to take along with you after you leave Frankenjura.

AvocadopasteSeid Ihr in mediteranen Ländern beim Klettern unterwegs so habt Ihr eine bessere Chance an reife speziell dunkle Avocados ranzukommen. Ebenso gibt es da meistens auch Baguette in besserer Qualität als bei uns in Deutschland. Diese beiden harmonieren hervorragend an warmen Tagen zu kühlem (im Fluss, Bach, oder Leitungswasser, Schnee???) gehaltvollen Weisswein. Dazu noch ein paar schwarze…
Drunken King Prawns“It was a hot autumn in the 9-ties when we decided to bulldoze our way to southern Spain. Our flight landed in Malaga. We checked out of the airport, got in to our rental car and were looking very much forward to exploring this part of the world. It was my first time in spain, the culture, food was something really new for me. Andalusia was blessed with warm temperatures, hidden secret spots…

I was amazed yesterday to see what some climbers have in their rucksack...you think it's usually full of equipment, rope, carabines, etc... A normal backpack with those weigh at least 12 kgs, depending of how you minimise. Well, when a fellow freind of ours turned up at the African Wall, and unpacked his bag, it was full of things to eat! Let me list out what I saw: 3 litres of water, 1 500g…
