Will Innsbruck help the home team?

The races themselves take place in Kletterzentrum Innsbruck. This hall is considered by many to be the best indoor climbing area in Central Europe, if not the world. This area provides indoor and outdoor climbing in the range of 6000 m2, divided proportionally between difficulty climbing, bouldering and speed climbing. It is not surprising that Czech athletes will feel at home here, this climbing center has become one of the training grounds not only of the Czech climbing team.

At the same time, a phenomenal Austrian climber Jan Hojer he competes in front of his own audience, which will certainly help him overcome difficult sections.
