"Blue wheel-Teteven

The last climbing season turned out to be very active both for climbers and route setters. Fortunately for all of us, it appeared that the so desired formations – the tuffas, are no longer mirage and we don’t need to go to Spain or Greece to jam knees anymore. With painstaking work and a lot of dedication on the rock massif the “Blue Wheel” situated over Teteven we have set over 15 routes with difficulty from 5c to 8c(?). Most of the routes are split into two parts due to the extensive height of the rocks. The sector is facing east making it suitable for climbing in spring, summer and autumn seasons. The substantial overhanging upper part and the canopy of trees’ crowns form an “umbrella” and it is possible to climb even in heavy rain. The place can be reached by a path that has a joint start with the eco-path for the “Dangerous tooth” hut/shelter. The markings from the stone pyramid show the place where the path splits into two and goes into the forest. After 20-minute walk you reach a rock threshold that is equipped with rope railing all the way to the routes. The development of the sector is supported by BFCA, Kiril Christov (“The Sloper”), who found the rocks and gave the initial push, and by “PIK3000” who joined the project with a lot of bolts. Here are photos and guide for the routes.

Dryanovo and Ribaritsa- the new meccas

After a two-day intelligence, finally I got some pictures from Ribaritsa and Drjanovo.My trip to the Dryanovo Monastery was designed to assess the potential of rocks and about how many bolts will be needed .I know that the area is very large, but only does so, it took me 4 hours to travel, and it's not all!
Ribaritsa was the second destination that i visit.The Rocks who saw from the road was a small part of what was hiding in the forest.Definitely i found what I was looking for, namely: strong blue-orange rock with a unique relef.The area is about a kilometer, and the height varies from 10 m to 30m.
For the development of the two sites are written projects to BFCA/Bulgarian federation of climbing and alpinizum/.Hera are some photos of both places.
