With about 28 routes ranging from mild UIAA 4s to a bold UIAA 9 („Krematórium“ takes the crown), it’s perfect for climbers chasing solid variety: slabs, roofs, even some “drippy” stalactite-like features. Wall heights reach 20-25 m.
Getting there feels like an adventure: park by the old factory and residential blocks, weave through gardens, walk up a hillside forest path, drop into a clearing under the cliffs. It takes ten-odd minutes but the setting—meadows, sunlight, echoing rock—is well worth it.
Wear a helmet. Rocks fall. Some routes are well-bolted, others require care. The sun hits this southeast wall with intensity, especially outside of summer’s worst heat. Spring or autumn brings the best climbing weather.
