I recently had the exhilarating experience of climbing the Via Ferrata Kočičí kameny, rated B/C. Nestled in the picturesque Czech landscape, this via ferrata offers a fantastic blend of challenge and scenic beauty. The route involves a satisfying amount of vertical ascent, requiring a decent level of fitness and confidence on exposed rock. While not overly technical, there are sections that demand careful footwork and upper body strength, especially navigating some of the steeper walls and traverses. The fixed cables and ladders provide ample security, making it accessible to climbers with some prior experience. The views from the top are truly rewarding, overlooking the surrounding forests and valleys. It's a perfect via ferrata for those looking to push their boundaries without being overwhelmed by extreme difficulty. Overall, Kočičí kameny provides a memorable and enjoyable climbing experience, leaving you with a sense of accomplishment and a deep appreciation for the natural beauty of the region.
