The training

To keep fit and well prepared for the future achievement, we must also think of training and practice of climbing during the winter. These days many are the climbing gyms in cities. If you are looking for one close to you, we recommend that you use the online map provided by the site ilooove.it

Now that you found the ckimbing gym nearest to you  what you lack is  climbing partner or partners. Unlike other sports for which  it’s always good to have colleagues to motivate each other, in climbing having a partner (belayer) to ensure you while you are climbing  is indispensable.

A simple solution to find people who share your passion for climbing around you is to use the Meetup website. This site allows you to find and join groups of climbers around you. For example in Ile de France you can join the Climber & Belayer #Escalade #Climbing @issylesmoul group or Paris Climbing – Climbing Meetup to participate to weekly climbing meetings.

Located in the heart of Transylvania, the northwest region of Romania, the natural reservation Cheile Turzii is one of the most important climbing areas in Romania.The gorges are cross from northwest to southeast by the river “Hasdate” and so the left side is exposed south while the right side is facing north.

The site has over 250 climbing routes divided between the two sides. The routes of the left side (facing south) are ideal for climbing early morning hours while the right side routes (facing north) are to be promote for climbing in the afternoon.

The level of difficulty of the routes ranges from 4 to 9 but the majority of the routes  have a difficulty level between 5 and 8.

The bigger part of the routes have an average length of 20 meters, but there are also longer routes up to 50m. In short, with a rope of 70 m you can climb on most of the routes of  the site.
