The Climbers Paradise ‘Rock ClimbingAreas’ handbook serves as a practical guide for tourism regions, local authorities and those responsible for managing Rock Climbing Areas. It sets out standards for the construction, refurbishment, maintenance and quality assurance of Rock Climbing Areas and bouldering sites, and also covers the legal framework as well as recommendations on materials, documentation and safety measures. In this way, the handbook helps to ensure the long-term quality and safety of climbing infrastructure.
