Touch the Clouds is the name of the pole vault festival founded by Matthias Schimmelpfennig in 2007 in Gr\u00e4felfing near Munich. The name says it all: the small but very fine pole vault community in Gr\u00e4felfing is aiming for the top – the very top. From young talents to top athletes who also perform on the big international stages.<\/h2>\n

They are the guarantors for the success of the festival – and for meeting the standards demanded by the national and international associations.<\/p>\n
