Climbing "Nosorog" (Rhinoceros) in the Kukovi ispod Vlake area of Paklenica is a fantastic experience for climbers comfortable with grades 5-/5 (UIAA). This route, named for its distinctive rock formation resembling a rhinoceros's horn, offers a blend of engaging climbing and stunning scenery. Expect mostly well-featured, solid limestone with satisfying holds. While generally well-protected with bolts, some sections may require careful footwork and a good sense of balance. The crux often involves navigating a slightly overhanging section or a delicate traverse around the 'horn' itself. The views from the top are well worth the effort, offering panoramic vistas of the Paklenica gorge and surrounding mountains. It's a popular route, so arriving early can help avoid crowds. Remember to check the weather forecast before heading out and be prepared for variable conditions typical of the Paklenica area. Overall, "Nosorog" is a classic Paklenica climb that provides a great introduction to the area's climbing style and beauty.
