Product information "climbing guidebook Croatia"

Now in its 11th edition, this definitive guide to Croatia covers 78 climbing areas. The guide includes all equipped climbing areas and walls along the Adriatic coast (with the exception of Paklenica), as well as the most interesting areas inland. 
In recent years, Croatia has become widely acclaimed as one of the finest rock climbing destinations in Europe.
The amount of rock here is truly staggering, and such is the variety of climbing on offer
— everything from limestone sport climbing to multi-pitch expeditions — that for a first-time visitor,
it can be very difficult to know where to start.
The ‘Croatia Climbing Guide’ is a climbing guide containing more than 4,868 single-pitch and multi-pitch routes ranging from grades 3 to 9b. 
Information on the individual climbing areas is organised into various sections. Each area is introduced with a text description covering its main features, accommodation options and access to the area.
All further information – number of routes at different grades, route lengths, approach times, GPS data, aspect/sun exposure, climbing styles, wall characteristics, best season, child-friendliness – is clearly presented in pictogram form.
The individual topos are laid out over high-quality photos and are consistently very easy to read. Detailed maps with GPS coordinates for car parks are also included.
