Pravý těžší

Climbing 'Pravý těžší' (7/7+) in Homole is a true test of nerve and skill, quintessential sandstone climbing. From the approach, the towering rock formations already hint at the challenges ahead. The initial moves demand precision, navigating the unique holds and finding placements for protection – often just slings and knots in hourglasses, a hallmark of Czech climbing. As you ascend, the route reveals its sustained character, each section building on the last. There's a particular section around the 7+ mark where the rock becomes steeper, demanding intricate footwork and a strong mental game. The exposure is breathtaking, offering panoramic views of the surrounding 'rock city'. Reaching the summit block brings a profound sense of accomplishment. The quiet solitude up there, with the wind whispering past, is a reward in itself. The subsequent rappel down, looking back at the line you've just climbed, solidifies the experience. 'Pravý těžší' isn't just a physical challenge; it's a deep dive into the unique world of Homole's sandstone, a truly memorable ascent.
