Varáha

Climbing 'Varáha' (7+/8-) at Blážina stěna - levá část is a truly memorable experience. This route is a testament to sustained power and technical precision. From the outset, you're met with pumpy moves on relatively good but demanding holds, lulling you into a false sense of security before the real challenge begins. The middle section is where the route truly bites, demanding intricate footwork and keen finger strength on surprisingly small crimps and subtle pockets. The crux sequence often involves dynamic reaches or a finely balanced static battle, culminating in a pumpy traverse to the anchor. It's a relentless climb that pushes your limits, but the feeling of clipping the chains, having wrestled with its unique character, is immensely rewarding. A true test piece in its grade.
