Climbing 'Okap' (The Overhang) at a grade of 5+ is a truly memorable experience that tests both technique and nerve. This iconic route lives up to its name, featuring a prominent, sustained overhang that defines its character. As you commit to the steepness, you immediately feel the exposure, with the rock falling away beneath you. The crux involves powerful, precise moves on often-small holds, demanding excellent body tension and a cool head. It's not just about brute strength; finding the right sequence and maintaining rhythm through the airy section is key. Successfully navigating 'Okap' rewards you with an incredible sense of accomplishment and breathtaking views from its airy perch. It's a classic for a reason – a perfect blend of challenge, exposure, and a true test of a climber's skill at this grade.
Rules

The ČHS rules for Czech rock areas and the local regional commission's rules apply: do not alter the rock or holds, do not climb on wet rock, and follow ČHS principles for first ascents.
