Climbing "Žlábek (asfaltový)" (grade 4) in "Placatá zebřata" offers a fun and straightforward experience. While a grade 4 route might seem simple, "Žlábek (asfaltový)" presents a unique challenge due to its nature. The climb likely follows a shallow gully or groove ('Žlábek' translates to 'small gutter' or 'groove'), and the 'asfaltový' part suggests a somewhat polished or smooth surface, perhaps even resembling asphalt in texture. This can make for slippery holds and require careful footwork and balance. "Placatá zebřata" (Flat Zebras) as the area name paints a picture of low-angled, perhaps striped, rock formations. The route likely features relatively easy moves, but the polish and subtle features demand attention to detail and efficient technique. Expect to focus on precision and smooth transitions rather than raw power. Overall, it's a great climb for warming up, practicing technique, or enjoying a relaxed day out with friends in a scenic location.
