Climbing at Broumov Walls

1536 routes
34 areas
1–10 grades

The Broumov Walls are a sandstone ridge in the Broumov region near the Polish border, running from south-east to north-west between Hlavňov, Slavný and Božanov within the Broumovsko PLA. The highest point is Božanovský Špičák (773 m), and there are striking cliffs and towers below Koruna (769 m) and around Hvězda.

The area is less well known and quieter than nearby Adršpach, and there is no entrance fee. Alongside traditional sandstone climbing with sparse rings and textile protection there are also some sportier routes. Sandstone rules apply – no chalk or metal gear, dry rock only; check current restrictions with the Czech Mountaineering Association and the Broumovsko PLA administration.

Part of East Bohemia, Broumov Walls has 1536 routes documented on climbing.place. Routes range from grade 1 to 10. Explore its 34 crags and sectors below.

Common styles: Rock Climbing, Fixed belay, Textile belay, Vertical wall, Laid wall.
