Climbing camp - climbing, hiking, building a cable car and relaxing

The Bergschaft Family cordially invites families to take part in our exciting climbing camp, which is specially designed to offer parents and children a shared adventure in the fascinating world of climbing. Parents can also take some time out and organise it individually without their children.

To the dates and registration

We offer a programme for the whole family! We all start together with joint activities, learn how to climb and build a zip wire across a river together.

If the children feel comfortable, we offer the parents time and space to organise their days freely and individually. This gives parents the opportunity to leave their children alone on individual days of the programme so that they can take time for themselves or enjoy other activities.

The safety of our participants is our top priority. All activities are led by qualified and experienced mountain guides and youth & sports leaders to ensure a safe and fun experience for all.

Our climbing camp offers families the opportunity to learn the basics of climbing together or to improve their skills under the guidance of experienced instructors.
