Pine rock

The first journey of Pine Rock. It leads through the crack directly to the top. The path is not secured, it is often climbed more like a boulder. However, the ascent to it is uphill, so we recommend the use of small wedges or friends. The path is climbing.

The path begins in the drop to the right of the path through the center of the plate. It leads along a gentle wall over a small overhang into a considerable depression and from there to the top for abseiling. The path is secured with three rivets and a common rappel, which it shares with paths No. 6 and No. 5.

Note: If the climber is smaller and does not reach the cut-out handrail, the difficulty is increased by the newly formed boulder to 5c/6a (VI/VI+)
Logical diagonal: the connection of paths 5, 7 and 8. The entrance is at the handrail of path 8 and continues along the wall over its two rivets. At the second rivet, turn left to the first rivet of path No. 7 and further left along the sloping platform to path No. 5 and that way to the top. Rated 6a (VI+)

A logical, traditionally secured path leading down a drop corner to a visible sloping shelf. From there, the climber continues to the corner and then to the top. The route is traditionally climbed using small wedges and friends (as in the first ascent) or a combination of traditional and fixed belaying. There are two rivets on the shelf that lead to ropes.

The last road before the edge. Access to the path is at the arrow in the laid part under the overhang. From there, the path leads over an overhang to a sloping shelf and slightly to the left to the clock, in which you can traditionally secure it. From them it follows slightly over a small wall to the top and to abseiling behind it.

The entrance to this path is on the inclined wall behind the edge, between paths No. 11 and 13. The path leads along the edge to a slight overhang. Until this moment, the way of unlocking is three bolts. This is followed by a roughly meter-long traverse along an inclined platform on the left. Using that we go around the overhang and over a small wall and one bolt we climb to the abseil behind the peak.

The path is the second path to the right from the edge of the rock. It leads, from the entrance, through a small wall, over an inclined plate upwards. It is a simple plate climbing unlocked with three rivets leading to abseiling. The first half can be additionally unlocked traditionally using a clock.

The path leads very straight, through the depression directly to abseiling. The climber is permanently unlocked up to just behind the halfway point with two rivets. In the first half, it is possible to unlock traditionally. However, the rock has many good firm holds and steps, so this is not a necessity for more experienced climbers (as with route no. 13 and no. 15).

A path combining fixed and traditional belaying, starting on the vertical wall before the cliff. The path leads across the plateau diagonally to the left to abseil. The first fixed belay is only a few meters below the abseil (common for routes 13, 14 and 15). Most of the path can be unlocked traditionally using small wedges or friends. However, this is not necessary for experienced climbers. However, be extra careful at the start of the path, as there is a risk of falling from a small slope into the "warehouse".

The first way behind the stairs. The ascent is along the wall and leads directly to the first bolt (at the same time, it is also the crux of the route). Clicking into the first bolt is followed by climbing over the next two bolts to the climb. Alternatively, the last bolt of the route can be used for abseiling.

The route is a combination of traditional and fixed insurance. The climber steps onto the vertical wall and climbs slightly to the right with the help of a bolt to the saddle. Here you secure yourself on the rivet of route no. 21 and follow diagonally to the right to rappel under the summit. The second half of the route is unlocked traditionally or by using extended expressways via route rivets No. 21.

This route is a variant of Route No. 20 Tingl-Tangl, from which it disconnects at the first bolt. The variant continues to the left before the flat pillar (using another bolt). From the top of the pillar, then via a sloping wall and one borhák, there is abseiling behind the top, which is shared with route no. 21.

Climbing this route is more challenging for small climbers. However, it leads over the rivet of the beginning of the toe joint. Further on, the path leads to the left of the joint, over four rivets to the rappel. Pairing technique is not necessary here as most of the route is climbed over side moves and edges.

The road with the entrance just to the left of the overpass. It leads over four rivets to the rappel (route no. 24). The first three meters around the overhang are not unlocked. However, it is possible to insert a small friend or wedge. The path itself skirts the gap on its right side.

The hardest path of the right segment of the pine rock leads directly over the overhang. Access to it is to the left of route No. 27 (both are marked with an arrow). Unlocked by two bolts (shared with route no. 27), it leads further to abseiling. The route is technically and physically demanding and has two possible abseils. Direct abseiling is behind the summit and shared with routes No. 27 and No. 28. More pleasant and less destructive for the rope is the abseiling for the routes around the gap. It is enough to climb a short traverse to the left of the platform (we recommend this option, as it is less demanding on the ropes and after the crux of the route).

The rightmost path (marked by an arrow) starting in the overhang and continuing straight up over two rivets. From the second rivet, the climbing changes to slab climbing and continues to abseiling behind the edge. Climbing Borová skála is very physically demanding and consists of lateral and downward pulls.
