Climbing: When you ask what’s the
most interesting place for free climbing in Croatia, many free-climbers will
answer - Omis. Combining, in the best way, the sea, Cetina River and rocks,
what is really eyes cherishing, there are also several advantages in comparison
with other locations. Let’s start: Adriatic road – Magistrala is passing
through the city centre, and the most distanced location is only 5 min drive
far and the nearest one is just above the roofs of the old town. It is possible
to reach many “directions” by the road what is significant advantage,
especially for “climber’s families” and bigger groups. The number of forty
directions at seven locations guaranties interesting and exciting holiday.
Directions range from easiest, beginners, to hardest (what free-climbers call
“projects”) which should be climbed and appraised yet.
"Orientation", actually, the position of the directions regarding cardinal
points is diverse and enables whole day climbing, what is important during
summer when everybody’s looking for shade. Besides ordinary, sport directions,
there are several "big wall" directions, 300 and more meters long, what makes
Omis capable to serve the most demanding climbers. It also should be known that
Omis is situated between two big locations for free climbing in this part of
Croatia: Split - 25 km from Omis - Marjan location and Brela - about 20 km
Brela. Traditionally, during the whole year, huge number of free-climbers from
all over the Europe visits Omis, location where much more directions are to be
made. It is already founded free-climbing Club “Malduk”: which gathers local
free-climbers. Members of the Club are always at the disposal of those who are
just intending to meet free-climbing Omis.
