Oblík

Climbing "Oblík" (grade 4) in the "Pod věží" area is a classic introduction to Czech sandstone climbing. "Oblík", meaning roughly "rounded hill," is a popular route, offering a pleasant and exposed climb with good holds throughout. The rock is generally solid, though attention should always be paid to the placement of protection (trad gear is essential as there are no bolts). The climb itself typically involves a vertical crack or corner system leading to the summit. The views from the top, particularly of the surrounding sandstone towers and forests, are rewarding and make the effort worthwhile. It's a great choice for climbers looking to experience the unique character of Czech sandstone and build confidence on trad routes of moderate difficulty.
