Rock
Climbing in the Kvarner Area
There
are a few small crags to the north and east of Rijeka, though
the best rock climbing area is near the town of Karlobag.
Dabarski kukovi crag is a collection of buttress's offering
multi-pitch rock climbing up to 185m high. All of the crags
in this area are all limestone rock and are generally well
bolted.
The
crags of Dabarski kukovi (185m high) and Bozin kuk (220m high)
offer good multi-pitch climbing of up to 6-pitches. For all
the crags that offer multi-pitch climbing, a set of nuts and
friends are required. Also note for some routes at Dabarski
kukovi a 70m rope is recommended.
The
Spring and Autumn are the best time to climb in this area,
though it is possible to climb all year round at crags such
as Veli Vrh, krk - Baska, and Cres - Lubenice. |
