Petrohrad

Access
Petrohrad is situated about 80km west of Prague. From Prague take the main road (toll route) no.6/E48 west towards Karlovy Vary and reach Petrohrad. Exit for the village and reach its center after 1.5km. Logistics
Wild camping is permitted at the Josemit area, otherwise head to the campsite in Jesenice. Period
Climbing is possible all the year round. Although the area can be windy, most boulders are sheltered in the forest. After rainfall some rocks remain wet, so the wind is definitely appreciated. Some areas are excellent for hot days, too. Notes
Padani 2009
The 7th annual open air bouldering competition Petrohradske PADani is scheduled for Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 April 2009 at Petrohrad, Czech Republic.

This Central European PADani event is similar to the Italian Melloblocco meeting. The event takes place at the village Petrohrad (West Bohemia, located close to Prague) and officially starts at 10am on Saturday 25 April. Just like in previous years the two day session will be accompanied by parties and other side events.

This year the mysterious Petrohrad forest offer about 300 brand new boulder problems. The majority are stunningly beautiful lines – be prepared for some fairly highball problems. For ambitious boulderers there are about twenty 7C problems and about eight Fb8a's, one 8B and even one 8B+. But just like last year the organisation has focussed predominantly on easier problems, ensuring that those climbing Fb4, Fb5, and Fb6 will be happy.
