Peak 17

Climbing tower at the RPTU
Welcome to the heart of the vertical!

We are delighted to welcome you to the official website of the Peak 17 climbing tower. At 17 metres high, the tower sits enthroned in the middle of the Palatinate Sports Centre on the RPTU sports grounds in Kaiserslautern.

Peak 17 is a co-operation project between the DAV Landesverband Rheinland-Pfalz, the Rheinland-Pfälzische Technische Universität Kaiserslautern-Landau and the Heinrich-Heine-Gymnasium Kaiserslautern. The climbing tower offers a variety of routes and walls for all levels of amateur and competitive sport. From the 3rd to the 11th UIAA level of difficulty, we have a wide range of climbing routes ready for you. They spread on a climbing area of approx. 650m² with 28 anchor points.
