The project "Bouldercup & Highline Festival Hohnstein 2o2o" is a sporty weekend outdoor event from September 4-6, 2020. It starts on Friday evening with an opening (music and campfire). On Saturday there will be a bouldering competition with six starter classes (women / men, youth male / female, seniors), for which at least 100 starters are expected. A film screening is planned for the evening. A children's course with ten stations is planned for Sunday (skill and movement tasks). At least 50 children are expected to take part. In addition, a team competition is to be carried out, which consists of three disciplines (bouldering, slacklining, volleyball) and for which at least 10 teams of 4 people are expected. On both days there will be a workshop for slacklining (balancing on a tensioned belt) for participants and visitors. At least two highlines (high variants of the slacklines) are stretched over the weekend, which the experienced can walk and on which there will be a professional demonstration. A total of 250 to 300 participants and visitors are expected during the event. The project aims at the meeting and exchange of German and Czech athletes, the cooperation of institutions in the border region as well as the long-term cross-border networking of cultural and sporting multipliers. A follow-up project is planned after completion. On the one hand, the project is aimed at athletes in the two main sports. In the future, bouldering / climbing in particular will experience increased public interest, as it will be represented at the Olympic Games for the first time this year (2020). The event also appeals to guests from the Elbe-Labe region. Especially the highlining gives visitors to the event an extraordinary perspective of the landscape of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. The project is specifically aimed at anyone who likes to play sports, is active in nature and is enthusiastic about the unique landscape. The project thus addresses everyone regardless of gender, religion or ethnicity.

The event should achieve a supra-regional charisma through the German-Czech cooperation. The activities on this weekend not only bring the participants and spectators closer to outdoor sports in general. It also becomes clear that the Elbe Sandstone Mountains are a cross-border landscape. It is precisely through movement in the nature of this cultural landscape that national borders are overcome. The cooperation of the climbing club Schwarzer Kamin eV with the Museum Turnov and the Czech Slackline Association not only opens up the possibility of merging two countries and two sports. At the same time, two regions can appear at the event: the Bohemian Paradise and the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. The venue in Hohnstein's castle garden sensitizes the participants to the natural environment of Saxon Switzerland. The partnership with the Turnov Museum presents the guests with an attractive offer in the Bohemian Paradise with its climbing museum. The added value lies not only in the connection between German and Czech athletes, the information about tourist offers in the Bohemian Paradise and the upgrading of the place Hohnstein and its castle. The value of the project lies in the direct contact of people who are connected to the landscape and the region through their sporting activities. The shared experiences can create community. Insofar as there is no event in the region where two regions are presented and two sports can be played and learned in one place, the event is a novelty. The direct cooperation between the climbing club Schwarzer Kamin, the Museum Turnov and the Czech Slackline association creates a common point of identification, which is a good prerequisite for further cooperation.
