Organization

Touch the Clouds is the name of the pole vault festival founded by Matthias Schimmelpfennig in 2007 in Gräfelfing near Munich. The name says it all: the small but very fine pole vault community in Gräfelfing is aiming for the top – the very top. From young talents to top athletes who also perform on the big international stages.
