Climbing 'Vilya' (grade 7) in Ringkamp is a memorable experience. This route is not just about brute strength; it demands a thoughtful approach and precise execution. The crux lies in a powerful sequence through a slightly overhanging section, requiring good body positioning and efficient use of marginal holds. Expect a mix of crimps, pockets, and sometimes even a tenuous smear or two. The initial section can feel a bit balancy, leading up to the main difficulties. Once you navigate the crux, the climbing eases slightly, although maintaining focus until the chains is crucial. The rock quality is generally excellent, offering good friction. 'Vilya' is a rewarding climb for those looking to test their technical skills and power endurance in a stunning setting. It's a true test of climbing ability and definitely worth a try for any climber operating comfortably at the grade.
