Climbing 'Lovec žížal' (Worm Hunter), a grade 6 route at Rybníček, is a truly delightful experience. Nestled by the tranquil waters of the pond, this route offers a perfect blend of technical moves and enjoyable climbing. The name itself hints at the earthy, sometimes slightly damp, character of the rock, especially after rain. The ascent typically begins with engaging moves over positive but sometimes spaced holds, demanding good balance. As you climb higher, the route often becomes more sustained, requiring precise footwork and a keen eye for the next sequence. The crux might involve a delicate slab move, a powerful pull on a small crimp, or a series of sustained maneuvers. Reaching the anchors offers not just a deep sense of accomplishment but also stunning panoramic views across the Rybníček pond, making the effort entirely worthwhile. It's a testament to the beauty of outdoor climbing – challenging yet immensely rewarding, set in a serene natural environment. A true classic for its grade, 'Lovec žížal' invites climbers to connect with both the rock and the peaceful surroundings.
