Rock
Climbing around Trieste in Italy, Osp in Slovenia & northern
Croatia
The rock climbing around Trieste, consists
of 4 separate crags. Val Rosandra is the most extensive and
is made up of a series of many buttresses and it also offers
some multi-pitch routes up to 80m long. At Napoleonica there
is single pitch sports climbing situated above and below the
road.
Across the border in Slovenia, the rock
climbing at Osp actually consists of 3 different crags; Osp
itself with its razor-sharp slabs, and technical vertical
and slightly overhanging walls that offers both single and
multi-pitch routes; Misja Pec with its steep powerful single
pitch routes mainly in the higher grades; and Crni Kal offers
single pitch routes mainly in the lower grades.
The climbing in northern Croatia is not
as extensive as the crags around Osp and Trieste, though they
do offer the best potential for developing new routes. Visit
