Holds made by a climber
Peak-a-boo Climbing Holds is Stephan Scherzinger’s workshop in Erding, near Munich.
Hi, I’m Stephan
My name is Stephan Scherzinger, and I’m the founder of Peak-a-boo Climbing Holds. I’ve been climbing for 30+ years and have developed a deep love and appreciation for the sport and lifestyle.
Where it started
My very first climbing experience was at a crag called Römerstein in the Harz region of Germany. The year was 1993.
Since my early experiences on rock, I’ve had the privilege of “putting up” or “new routing” with first ascents in some of the most beautiful and challenging locations around the world. In the late 90´s I was focusing my efforts at Devil Rock in Ontario, Canada. In 2008 and 2010 I´ve done first ascents of multipitch adventures at Haegefjell in Telemark, Norway. As of 2010 my focus has been mostly at Guffertstein Klettergarten in Tirol, Austria. My experiences as a climber have allowed me to develop a keen eye for creating holds that not only look great but also provide an interesting climbing experience.

The Peakaboo Westwand
As of 2021, the latest ongoing mountain project is an off-the-beaten-path “secret crag” (for now) we named the “Peakaboo Westwand” (Guffert). This development could not have been made possible without the motivation of a handful of fellow climbers and friends, from the Deutsche Alpenverein Alpenkranzl Erding to whom I am very grateful. It’s always exciting to have climbers come together and discover new holds that might let you “send it”. You don’t have to be crazy, but it helps! ????
