Ostrov is a llittle czech village in the Elbsandstein mountains which is surrounded by beautiful rocks. 400 towers and walls with 3800 routes wait to be climbed.

All objects are shown on colored area maps. There is an ascent sketch for each summit, with somewhat confusing walls also shown using topo sketches.The new climbing guide uses a series of pictograms to draw the user's attention to important features of the respective climbing crag: fast-drying rock, child-friendly terrain, often damp, historical information and information on closure periods.In addition to the usual descriptions of the summits and ascents, the reader is provided with a wealth of background information.

The Bielatal climbing guide is part of the six-volume guide series Saxon Switzerland from the mountain and nature publisher Peter Rölke. This volume describes 249 peaks with 4027 ascents. These climbing destinations are located in the Bielatal. The Bielatal with its peaks is the richest climbing area within Saxon Switzerland. The bizarre rock towers of the valley consist of very solid labiatussandstone, which is strikingly horizontally banded. Thus one has many sharp ledges as footholds and handholds. 4 detailed site plans, on which all peaks are recorded and depicted, help to find the climbing destinations in this region. On 19 climbing sketches 83 peaks are recorded and on 3 topos 4 peaks are shown. Dark blue rubberized cover Area: Saxon Switzerland is a national park around the Elbe valley south-east of Dresden in Saxony Rock: sandstone Difficulties: wide choice of routes in all grades - up to XI (saxon grade) Number of routes: 4027 routes Protection: trad climbing Season: spring, summer, fall

Elbsandstein Plaisir - climbing for beginners and plaisir climbers
The Elbe Sandstone Mountains southeast of Dresden are certainly one of the most scenic and best climbing areas in Europe. Bizarre rock towers, romantic gorges, endless forests - even the painters of the Romantic period were fascinated by the rock country to the right and left of the Elbe. A climbing tradition of over 150 years has preserved a rather strict set of rules here: there are only a few belay rings and no metal clamping wedges or friends may be used. But to conclude from this that climbing on the more than thousand towers is poorly secured or even dangerous is wrong. Many of the more than 21,000 climbing routes can be secured excellently with the existing rings and additionally laid slings. In this richly illustrated guide, Helmut Schulze and Valentin Hölker have compiled a selection of over 400 of the most rewarding sandstone routes, mainly in difficulty grades I to VII - with clear topos and important tips on the safety. This is intended to make it easier for pleasure climbers, those unfamiliar with the area, or beginners to get started in Elbe sandstone climbing. Trails are located in the following areas: Bielatal, Rathen, Falkenstein, Schrammsteine, Tafelberge.
