Its Chairman Manfred Rudolf let it not take the guests from a dizzy height, and secured the rope to be welcomed by youth leader Michael Legelli,.
“Our youth is of the essence to the top,” says Rudolf. Therefore, the already in the gym existing Boulder room was past its limits, and the Alpine club Board of Directors had therefore decided to build “something clever”.
Namely, a climbing wall, to the four routes of varying difficulty to climb. In the case of the municipality, the proposal met with the non-bureaucratic approval, as Rudolf said. In addition, there was a grant in the amount of 1500 euros from the municipal coffers for the project.

In this context, he thanked the designer Sebastian Pfeiffer, structural engineer, Franz Tralmer, as well as the volunteers who have built the climbing wall in the last summer vacation in. The women of the local branch by doing the Rest and contributed to the dedication ceremony, a Buffet, where everyone is against donation could support.
For the Celebration of the day, there was also a fun competition where visitors were able to try out the wall – and a “Biertragel-Scramble”. Of course, all expertly backed up.
And also if in a competition some visitors in socks climbed the wall, typically used for climbing shoes. A climbing harness should all that use the wall regularly. The Alpine club has a low level of rental equipment for young people. “With the climbing wall Association is growing even more,” was Stefan Greißl of the neighboring section of Steingaden sure. Together with Franz Gilgen pure, he presented a climbing Comic, and a few additional handles for the new wall.
