Select from over 250 brands - at the German climbing expert!!

It all started back in 2006 with a passion for climbing and a great idea. Bergfreunde - the online retailer for mountain sports gear was founded with two co founders, one employee and a dog on the premises of a defunct textile factory near Stuttgart, Southern Germany. Today, eight years later, Bergfreunde is one of the top online dealers in Germany in the sector of climbing, mountaineering and outdoor sports, and has a customer satisfaction rating of 4.89/5.00 points (Trusted Shop, 2300 ratings). Recently we have been asked with increasing frequency if it would be possible to make buying from the UK easier? For us this was reason enough to put www.bergfreunde.co.uk, an English language version of our website, online this summer. It also lists prices in GBP and has free shipping to the UK from 80 GBP. Naturally the same thing applies to the UK as Germany: On working days the goods are dispatched within 24 hours! This means you'll hardly notice that the shipment is coming from the climbing expert in Germany.

As a welcome gift we are giving you, as a newsletter subscriber, an exclusive 20% voucher* for all products in our shop. Simply enter the code "ukclimbing" in the shopping cart.

Rock on - Your Bergfreunde.co.uk team!

*20% off any non-discounted item except books, magazines, DVDs, GPS devices, avalanche receivers and coupons. Redeemable only once per order. Cannot be combined with other vouchers. Valid until November 15th 2014.
