An important project for the company from Val di Fiemme, developed in collaboration with some of the most famous gyms in Europe with the aim of bringing more and more people to the climbing world. Climb Europe is also an opportunity to get to know and test the new products launched by La Sportiva for the SS22 season, in particular the brand-new Mantra climbing shoe, the flagship product of the collection.

The project will start on Saturday, April 30th, when six gyms, respectively in the cities of Milan, Paris, London, Madrid, Vienna and Munich, will simultaneously host the first stage of the long European journey: a day in which guests will have the opportunity to participate in 2 training workshops, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, with some of today’s greatest climbers from the La Sportiva team.
