One of the most popular places to hang in my hood (Vienna's 5th District of Margareten) is the…read moreBlockfabrik. This is a large boulder hall with lots of places to climb from easy to hard. You can do it one time or get a membership plan if you intend to go more often. And there's a nice chill cafe for eating and drinking - even if you are not going to climb. (I do def recommend drinking after climbing rather than before.) The Blockfabrik is so popular - especially late-afternoons and evenings - that I can guarantee you there will always be a lot of people 'hanging out' with you .... hanging both literally and figuratively!!

I was pleased to be able to join into the official opening of Vienna newest Climbing hall, which…read moreVienna certainly has a few of. But this is at least the first Boulderbar i have been to. I was very pleased with this boulder Hall as they put a lot of work into making it a great place to climb, I do want to return on another day when there are less people there. However my friends and i all agree it will be a great place to climb. However for us it will not become a regular place to climb, as 1. it is not the most convenant place to get to, and 2. it is more expensive then the ones we already go to. But never the less we will venture there now and again.

The Mizzi Langer Wand is probably the most well known climbing wall in the Vienna area. At the…read moreMizzi wall you have the total of 20 routes between 4+ / 6 and about 10 bouldering sections. The walls are very wore down, due to the amount of climber who have been practicing over the years. The Mizzi wall also gives beginner climbers the opportunity to top rope with a good set anchor. You will need a complete climbing set, climbing shoes, a 60 meter rope and a climbing helmet, due to lots of loose stones. The climbing wall drys very fast and its open year around. Have fun and be safe!

It is really safe so even if you are afraid of heights (like me!) after doing a few blue ones you won't be scared anymore and feel confident enough to do the reds and dark ones! And enjoy it! :) But the black ones can be very difficult, make sure you are fit enough before beginning one (you can't go back!...). I'll come again with great pleasure!
