A selected guide to climbing in the whole of Croatia (excluding the famed Paklenica Gorge which has its own guide). Handy if it is raining in the gorge as there are a few coastal and island crags where it may be dry. In recent years Croatia has become widely acclaimed as one of the finest rock climbing destinations in Europe and the amount of rock here is truly staggering. Such is the variety of climbing on offer - everything from limestone sport climbing to multi-pitch expeditions - that for the first-time visitor it can be very difficult to know where to start.
This guide covers 72 sport climbing crags, mainly around Rijeka (very close to Trieste), and Split, with a smattering elsewhere, including four near Zagreb, and featuring more than 3,500 single and multi-pitch routes, from grade 3 to 9a+.
It has easy to follow maps, complete with GPS coordinates for parking spaces, and clear approach instructions. Individual crag topos are based on high quality colour photos, and are accompanied by graphic symbols displaying information about orientation, angle of rock and length of approach, and there are lots of fabulous action shots.
