With
Croatia being a mountainous country it is a rock climbers
dream. Croatia can offer everything from multi-pitch traditional
routes, sports climbing (single and multi-pitch) to bouldering
on glorious limestone rock.
Paklenica is the most famous and best place
to go rock climbing in Croatia, which is located close
to Zadar. Paklenica
offers the rock climber everything from single pitch bolted
sports routes, to multi-pitch sports and traditional routes.
The dramatic 350m high face known as Anica kuk (shown
opposite) emphasizes everything that is excellent about
rock climbing in Paklenica.
Many
of the other crags within Croatia are located close
to major towns and popular holiday resorts; such as
the capital Zagreb;
the coastal resorts around Split
& Zadar; and the coastal towns of Rovinj
and Pula
of the Istria region in the North.
This
web site is aimed at rock climbers, who are looking
to visit Croatia and gives an overview of the different
climbing areas
within Croatia, details on flights
to the country and accommodation
suitable for rock climbers. The best time for climbing
in Croatia is from Autumn through to Spring, though
it is possible to climb all year round.
A guidebook for Croatia
covers all of the sports climbing in the
country, along with the dedicated Paklenica
guidebook.
Both guidebooks are in stock and can be
ordered from the Climb
Europe shop.
