Climbing Better

Rock Master sostenibile

Rock Master isn’t just a world-class climbing competition, it’s also an event that actively works to reduce its environmental impact and promote sustainable practices. Every year, we aim to make Rock Master more eco-friendly, more responsible, and more aware.

What does it mean to run a sustainable event?

Better for the planet, better for the community

Sustainability is a value that touches many areas, all equally important. It’s about protecting the environment, but also supporting the local economy and community. So, what makes Rock Master a sustainable event?

Waste reduction and recycling: We’ve set up waste separation systems throughout the event area to ensure proper disposal and recycling whenever possible.
Eco-friendly materials: We use recycled paper for printed materials and minimise single-use plastics, choosing biodegradable or reusable alternatives whenever we can.
Renewable energy: We encourage the use of public transport and shared rides to reach the event – a simple way to cut down on traffic and air pollution.
Local community involvement: We team up with local associations to create activities and experiences during the event.
Coinvolgimento della comunità locale: ci rivolgiamo ad associazioni del territorio per proporre attività durante l’evento.
100% local food: Our Food Area serves dishes made with local ingredients, sourced from small producers in Garda Trentino.

CONSCIOUS CLIMBING

You can make a difference on the rock too! The crags and climbing walls of Garda Trentino are set in a fragile natural environment – let’s take care of it, for us and for future generations.

Climb only in authorised and marked areas.
Take all your rubbish home.
Stick to the marked paths to access crags and routes.
When nature calls, head to the nearest toilet if possible. If there are no facilities, choose a secluded spot away from trails, bury organic waste and carry out everything else (including toilet paper).
Park only in designated areas or use the new Bus&Go Crag Service to reach the walls.
Chat with your crew, but keep it chill. It’ll be easier to hear climbing calls and stay connected with the environment around you.
Be smart and stay safe: follow the advice of experienced climbers and mountain professionals.
