Rovinj climbing guide

Sport climbing in a former Venetian quarry on the Zlatni rt (Punta Corrente) peninsula, just south of Rovinj in Istria. 150 bolted routes from grade 3 to 7a+, 5-16 m tall, all on vertical limestone without steep overhangs. The easy grades are technical footwork climbs; the harder lines are crimpy with a single hard move. The sectors follow the shoreline under pine forest, so you can pick sun or shade.
