History – Klettermarathon

As the manager of various climbing gyms, I have organized several climbing marathons since 2010. First in the DAV Kletterzentrum Nordhessen and later in the DAV Kletterzentrum Fulda. From the individual event, together with friends from neighboring climbing halls, the idea came up to take part in the competition at the same time and with/against each other. With a live evaluation from climbercontest.de, the Hessian climbing gyms DAV Kletterzentrum Fulda, Cube – DAV Kletterzentrum Wetzlar, DAV Kletterzentrum Darmstadt and Vertical World climbing gym Kassel competed against each other. We were also able to take a look at what was happening in the other climbing halls using live video connections. A challenge cup was also created and has been featured in various climbing halls ever since.

With the central organization of advertising via software and print, the climbing gyms have a competition that can be organized flatly and yet a professional and high-quality implementation of a popular sports competition. With the last Klettermarathon 2019 before the Corona forced break, a total of 21 climbing halls have registered for the Klettermarathon. The Klettermarathon challenge cup has been standing in the Kletterhalle Chemnitz since then and has been awarded to DAV Kletterzentrum Fulda in 2024.
