Abstract
Further research is urgently needed, because the mixed results of the existing studies do not allow final conclusions how rock climbing affects the cliff biota. Future studies should select comparable controls for biodiversity comparison, widen the focus to further cliff-associated taxa, and investigate how climbing effects vary with climbing intensity. Such studies would facilitate the improved management of rock climbing areas that are rich in biodiversity and contain rare and threatened species.
