Rules

Nature protection: Tower and surroundings closed from February 22 to June 30 due to peregrine falcon nesting.

OVK: Use magnesium according to sandstone rules, first ascents only with the consent of the administrator.

This sector is closed in spring for nesting birds. Check the current dates in the ČHS crag database.

Ostříží stěny and the Rájec valley are closed in spring for nesting birds. Check the current dates in the ČHS crag database.

The ČHS rules for climbing in Bohemian sandstone areas apply.

  • Chalk is banned.
  • No metal protection (cams, nuts, pitons) – only slings, knots and textile "UFOs" between the rings.
  • Climb on dry rock only – wet sandstone softens and breaks.
  • Do not alter the rock surface.
  • Abseil from the summit rings.

Parts of the area lie in Bohemian Switzerland National Park and the Elbe Sandstones Protected Landscape Area, where seasonal closures for nesting birds apply. Check the ČHS crag database before you go.
