Mansarda - Planja

Climbing 'Mansarda - Planja' (6+) on the majestic Planja wall in the Julian Alps is an experience that lingers long after the ropes are coiled. This classic multi-pitch route lives up to its 6+ grade, offering sustained and varied climbing on excellent limestone.

Reaching the summit after hours of focused climbing is an incredible reward, a blend of relief, pride, and awe. Mansarda - Planja isn't just a climb; it's an alpine adventure, a true test of skill and endurance.
