Clean climbing: a responsible method of climbing

Clean climbing is a form of climbing where no fixed belay devices (bolts) are used. Instead, the climber uses mobile safety devices such as friends and wedges, which are placed in natural rock structures. This technique promotes respect for nature by avoiding permanent tracks, and it assured safety while climbing.

Climbers must develop efficient belay-placement and belay-removal skills, and have knowledge of rock structure and clean climbing equipment.

With clean climbing, the climbers contribute to the conservation of the mountain environment and support sustainable sport practices.
