Jedovatá hranka

Climbing "Jedovatá hranka" (Poisonous Edge) on the "Hradní stěna" (Castle Wall) is a classic experience for climbers aiming for a solid grade 5 in Czech sandstone. The route, as the name suggests, follows a distinct arete or edge on the wall. Expect varied climbing, with good holds interspersed with sections requiring careful footwork and precise movement. The rock quality is generally excellent, but be mindful of the sandstone and avoid pulling hard on questionable holds, especially after rain. The exposure increases as you ascend, offering rewarding views of the surrounding landscape. While not overly long, the route demands respect and provides a satisfying challenge for climbers comfortable at the grade. Protection is typically sufficient, although some sections may require creative placements or extended runouts. Be sure to bring a standard rack of cams and nuts, and don't forget your helmet!
