Climbing "Překulen" (graded 7+/8-) in Malý Petrohrad is a truly memorable experience. The route demands a blend of technical precision, solid finger strength, and good body positioning. The holds are generally small and crimpy, requiring you to maintain constant tension and precise footwork. The crux typically involves a tricky sequence of reaches and underclings on a slightly overhanging face, demanding commitment and confidence. The rock itself is usually solid sandstone, offering a good amount of friction, but careful observation is key to finding the best sequences. The overall feeling is one of sustained effort and rewarding achievement upon reaching the top. A classic route in a beautiful, albeit sometimes crowded, climbing area.
