1989, Forlì. A small group of friends with a passion for climbing (at the time a still little-known sporting activity) and a great spirit of adventure and sharing decided to give life to a very ambitious project: founding one of the first climbing companies in Italy.

Vertical thus takes shape, step by step, among chalk clouds and dreams that, over time, find a way to all come true.

And speaking of ambitions: in 2018, that group of friends (now become a large sporting community) decides that the time has come to realize a very big wish, kept in the drawer for a long time.

Thus, during a lucky day, the new Vertical headquarters arrives: a 1300 m2 space with more than 500 m2 of climbing surface including lead and bouldering structures.

And it is here, in the new sports centre, that Vertical Forlì is committed to offering everyone a complete structure, capable of welcoming climbers in the best possible way, offering them related activities, support and services.

A group of friends that grows bigger every day, but with the same passion as always.
