Petzl Frankenjura Climbing Festival 2026: Four Days of Climbing Community at the Natural Pool Königstein

From June 4th to June 7th, 2026, the natural pool Königstein will transform into the gathering point for the climbing scene. The event experience combines rock workshops, inspiring lectures, a concert, yoga sessions, material tests, and a lively exhibition area. Thanks to thoughtful event planning and clear target audience communication, you can expect an open event atmosphere, short distances, and genuine community vibes.

Scene, Sound, Rope: This is what the festival feels like

In the morning, crash pads crackle on the lawn, during the day you climb on the nearby rocks of Frankenjura, and in the evening the audience's mood pulses at the movie night, talks, and concert. The ambiance of the natural pool provides relaxed breaks in between – with water, a sunbathing lawn, and plenty of space for tents, vans, and friends.

Organization to the Point: Arrival, Shuttle, Camping

Professional event management: The arrival by train to Neuhaus an der Pegnitz is easily solved thanks to a free shuttle bus. On-site, you can camp directly at the natural pool – parking spaces for cars, buses, and RVs are planned. The festival fee is paid fairly on-site; workshops can be booked separately, some free, some with a small protection fee.

Program Variety: Workshops, Lectures, Concert

Whether technical refinement, mental training, trad, or yoga – the workshops are limited and foster intensive learning. On stage, you will experience firsthand lectures, along with a movie night and concert under the open sky. Material tests and advice at the booths round off the event experience.

The reactions online are clear: The climbing festival excites visitors. Instagram: 'Can't wait to camp and climb at the natural pool again!' Instagram: 'Best community, short distances, top organization – see you in June!'

Conclusion

Four days of climbing focus in the heart of Frankenjura: connecting community, inspiring content, short distances, and plenty of practice on the rock. Grab your tent or van, plan your workshops, and experience the Petzl Frankenjura Climbing Festival 2026 live.
