German Bouldering Championship | Info & Livestream

On June 14th and 15th, Germany's best climbers will meet for the German Bouldering Championships at Studio Bloc in Pfungstadt. We have put together the most important information and the live stream for you.

On June 14 and 15 – just a week before the second and decisive Olympic Qualifier in Budapest – Germany’s strongest athletes will travel to Pfungstadt to take their chance at the national titles at Studio Bloc. 

As always, a strong field is expected: In addition to the winners of the respective national championships, large parts of the German national team have already announced their attendance, including Yannick Nagel, Yannick Flohé, Hannah Meul and Lucia Dörffel.

The defending champions: Flohé and Dörffel

The DMB 2023 will be remembered for its unique venue, tropical temperatures and a brilliant competition with numerous spectators. This also includes the two best from the previous year, Yannick Flohé and Lucia Dörffel.

But Sandra Hopfensitz also showed last year with strong World Cup results that she is fit for the next title, as did Helene Wolf, the German champion from 2022. With a bit of luck, Jan Hojer should also bring his experience back into the race. The same goes for Lasse von Freier, the German champion from 2022.
