Tlamička písečného červa

Ascending 'Tlamička písečného červa' (Mouth of the Sand Worm) in the surreal, almost dystopian landscape of 'Vrakoviště' (The Wreckage Yard) is an experience unlike any other. Graded a stout 6, this route truly lives up to its ominous name. The rock, a unique blend of gritty sandstone and weathered conglomerate, feels ancient and almost industrial, reflecting the desolate beauty of its surroundings. The climb itself is a masterclass in varied technique: delicate slab moves transition into powerful crack climbing, culminating in a constricted, almost claustrophobic chimney section – truly the 'mouth' of the worm. Protection can be sparse, demanding a steady nerve and precise placement. Every move is calculated, every hold scrutinized, as loose grit threatens to dislodge. But the reward, reaching the summit amidst the strange, sculptural rock formations, is immense. It's not just a climb; it's an exploration of a hidden, forgotten world, a testament to the raw, wild spirit of Vrakoviště.
