How to build your own climbing wall & the art of route setting

Lately I’ve been toying around with the idea of setting up my own climbing gym – potentially in Germany – but, who knows… South America might also be a nice place to climb judging from South America’s topography
While I still need to figure out a couple of issues (the biggest ones are location and financing at the moment) I wanted to share a couple of great resources on how to build your own indoor climbing wall and how to set routs on your wall/in your gym.

Also, in addition to the two books above, some great links on the topic:

• How to Build a Climbing Wall - https://www.indoorclimbing.com/climbing_walls.html
• blog on route-setting - https://www.routesetter.com
• Walltopia (climbing walls, holds, ...) - https://walltopia.com

Cheers!
Daniel
