Ledge climbing on the compact limestone rock face allows the magnificence of nature and the rocky cliffs to be experienced in a unique way. Deep runnels, honed to an impressive smoothness by nature and extremely craggy, in part, steep rock face sections make this climbing region so fascinating and particularly diverse.
