Find a climbing or bouldering partner in Munich
Munich is one of Europe’s climbing capitals: huge gyms, a strong DAV scene and real rock an hour away. The only thing missing is often a partner — especially for rope climbing, where you need someone to belay you.
On Hellohood climbers post sessions with the gym, the time and the level — “bouldering after work, V3–V5, Boulderwelt” — so you can find a partner for tonight, not next month.
Where Munich climbs
- DAV Kletter- und Boulderzentrum Thalkirchen — One of the largest climbing centres in the world.
- DAV Freimann — The DAV’s centre in the north of the city.
- Boulderwelt — Popular bouldering gyms in several parts of Munich.
- Heavens Gate (Werksviertel) — Climbing in a former factory building near Ostbahnhof.
