About this project

A. Veloz Offener Treff BüzE from Bürgerzentrum Ehrenfeld is responsible for this project
BüzE has been carrying out various climbing projects in Ehrenfeld for years. We want to expand this!

We offer a regular climbing session every Tuesday for young people aged 12 and over. Under the guidance of experienced, certified climbing instructors, the young people taking part learn safety and belaying skills, how to use the climbing equipment and the knots required for climbing on site at BüzE. The aim is to get fit for the climbing gym. To make this as practical as possible, we also set up a practice climbing wall directly in the community center. Participation is completely free of charge for the participants!

At regular intervals, we go to a nearby climbing hall together to put what we have practiced into action.

In addition to the fun of climbing and exercise, the participants learn essential soft skills, as they take on a great deal of responsibility for each other, learn to trust each other and need to communicate well with each other to ensure that everything runs smoothly and safely.

Climbing is a comparatively expensive sport, which is why we need your support to build up this offer and establish it in the long term. The funds will be used for climbing equipment, admission to the climbing hall, costs for certified and well-trained instructors, as well as material and maintenance costs for the practice wall, among other things.
