Pivní komín

Pivní komín (Beer Chimney), a classic grade 3 climb in the Vlčí stěna (Wolf Wall), offers a fantastic introduction to trad climbing in this beautiful Czech rock climbing area. The route follows a prominent chimney feature, making it relatively straightforward and well-protected with opportunities for placing your own gear. The rock is typically solid sandstone, providing good friction. While the grade is technically easy, the exposure and the nature of chimney climbing can make it feel more challenging for beginners. Expect stemming, bridging, and some awkward squeezing. A good rack of cams and some slings will be useful for protection. The views from the top are rewarding, offering a panorama of the surrounding landscape. It's a popular route, so be prepared for potential queues, especially on weekends. Overall, "Pivní komín" is a memorable and enjoyable climb that captures the essence of Czech sandstone climbing.
