FFA of Waterworld (9a) by Mina Markovič

Beautiful weekend after a long time, good conditions and logically many hard ascents! 17-years old Luca Bacer from Trieste climbed his first 8c – Talk is cheap, short and powerful classic in the left part of Mišja peč. Bravo Luca! Another Italian Silvio Reffo did a fast ascent of another 8c in Mišja peč, Vizija. He needed just three tries to clip its anchor. Slovenian Jakob Bizjak changed

Photo @ Daniel Jung's FB profile This winter seems like the bad weather really doesn't want to go away. OK, the weekend now will be sunny again, but there is some rain coming back again next week. But with the bad weather conditions and lots of motivation you can always find some dry climbing challenges in Mišja peč. Daniel Jung and Sylwia Buczek really didn't had the

Hurricane-force winds and destructive waves that rose up to ten meters on Wednesday around noon in just an hour destroyed the beautiful city of Rovinj. The storm left behind a real hubble-bubble. Rovinj's harbour, the streets around the central square and parking Valdibora that contained 200 cars looked unreal.

Silvio Reffo in Sanjski par extension @ Photo by Luka Fonda Silvio Reffo, professional rock climber from Arco (Italy) crushed the famous Sanjski par extension (9a) in Tedi’s cave in the left part of Mišja peč.

Because of the renovation of the road between Sočerga and Požane they have closed the border crossing Sočerga Požane which is for climbers the main road connection between Slovenian Osp, Mišja peč and Črni kal to Croatian part of Istria where the climbing is centred around the medieval town Buzet. It will remain closed until 24th of February. For all the climbers we recommend to

Well, happy new year climbers! :) Where to start? Hmmm, the weather for the holidays was a bit strange. There was a lot of fog close to the sea, so Kompanj near Roč was the busiest crag for sure.

Igor Čorko in Osapska pošast (8c) in the big cave of Osp @ Photo by Luka Tambača The biggest climbing news from the last week comes from 45 years old Croatian from Varaždin, Igor Čorko, who redpointed his first 8c ever - the 55 meters long endurance monster Osapska pošast in the big cave of Osp. Igor is well known in the climbing scene for climbing

@ Photo by Luka Fonda Adam Ondra returned to Osp this weekend. He was back trying his project in Tedi’s cave in the left part of Mišja peč. Due to a bit of his tiredness from the whole year of hard training he had to return home without clipping it’s anchor. Besides Mina Markovič’s amazing flashes and redpoints last week, this time she did the FFA of

During the last week Mina Markovič climbed so many hard routes in Mišja peč it’s hard to imagine. Already last week she easily flashed Lucky Luke (8b), the right extension of Hugo. But Saturday was her “no gravity day” when she first flashed Popaj (8a+), afterwards flashed hard and crimpy Chiquita (8b) and then pretty well warmed-up she hiked on flash as well the endurance challenge of
