Climbing the 'Via Normale' on Colac, graded 'B', represents a popular and accessible scrambling and light climbing route. Typically found in the Romanian Carpathians (e.g., Bucegi Mountains), this grade indicates a relatively easy, non-technical ascent. It involves exposed sections where hands are often needed for balance and progress, some very basic rock climbing moves, but no significant technical difficulty. It's an excellent choice for experienced hikers seeking a more challenging adventure or beginners accompanied by a guide, offering a thrilling sense of exposure without requiring extensive climbing gear. While ropes might be useful for belaying potentially exposed parts, the route primarily relies on good footwork and a head for heights, rewarding climbers with stunning panoramic views.
