Žlab

Climbing "Žlab" (literally "Gully" or "Chute") in Velká věž (Great Tower) is a classic route offering a rewarding experience for climbers comfortable with grade 6 (UIAA scale). The route typically follows a prominent gully feature, demanding a combination of chimney technique, face climbing, and sometimes even a bit of stemming. Expect varied rock quality and potentially some loose rock, especially within the gully itself. Good route finding skills and solid placement of protection are essential. While not overly sustained, certain sections require commitment and confident movement. The views from the top of Velká věž are spectacular and provide ample reward for the effort.
