The Valea Cernei National Park is located in the southwest of Romania, close to the border with Serbia and Bulgaria. It is not only the admirable unspoilt nature and breathtaking beauty of this protected area that make it worth a visit, but also the good range of climbing routes at almost all levels of difficulty. There is still a lot of movement in the individual climbing gardens, as can be seen from the numerous projects. Projects are being planned, drilled and developed. In addition to many single-pitch routes, there are also “shorter” multi-pitch routes. Outside of winter, climbing is almost always pleasant. Some of the areas are in the immediate vicinity of the river. A refreshing dip in the clear water is an additional option. In addition to the cold water, there are also thermal springs and baths. tempting!The climbing guide is kept very simple. Graphic topos, small site plans, an overview of the route for each climbing garden and, of course, the difficulties with the corresponding route names. Adventure in the Romanian Karst!68 pagesLanguage Romanian / EnglishEdition 2024

Climbing isn’t the first thing most people associate with Serbia. In fact, the country itself often goes unnoticed—overshadowed by its neighbours or reduced to a handful of clichés. But behind the surface lies a mountainous Karst landscape of deep gorges, remote valleys, and cliffs tucked into quiet corners of the Balkan, Carpathian and Dinaric mountains.This climb & travel guidebook is a powerful resource: a comprehensive, beautifully crafted introduction to a climbing scene still largely off the radar.  It covers not only 2,200 routes across 38 climbing areas in 6 regions, but also offers the kind of thoughtful detail that helps you travel well— a massive amount of infos, stories, maps, local contacts, and cultural context. It shows you where to climb, when to go, how to find your way with hand-crafted maps and Google Maps links, what to do on rest days and what to expect—not just from the rock, but from the people, the food, and the landscape.Whether you're looking for solitude, adventure, or just a fresh perspective and fresh rocks this underrated part of Europe has to offer, this book will open a new door for you.704 pagesLanguage: English/SerbianEdition: 2025Balkan ColoursN.
