Ice Climbing at Vălul Miresei Waterfall Cluj

Ice climbing is a great, but quite extreme sport. Just like wall climbing, ice climbing is a form of rock climbing.

Usually, this involves climbing rocky formations like frozen cascades, cliffs, and icy rock walls, using specific techniques and protection equipment (ice axes, spikes).

On a horizontal icy terrain, any hiking boots will do the job, but ice climbing requires special mountaineering boots or leather boots. These need to be compatible with the spikes and be stiff enough to support the climber's weight and hold the ankles tight.

The ice crampons are much longer on the front side than trekking ones, and the ice axes have aggressive blade and curved handles to avoid injuring your hands when striking the ice.

Anyone with, or without personal climbing gear or experience, can try ice climbing at the Răchițele Waterfall.

The transportation and meals are not included.

This experience is suitable for a group of minimum 2, maximum 4 persons.
