Description
“Mosquito” is a single-pitch sport route, 40 m long, equipped with 12 bolts and a lower-off ring.
The line follows compact, vertical limestone with small positive holds and precise, technical sequences.
The climbing is dynamic and continuous, with few rest points, while the crux — located in the upper third — demands accuracy and finger strength.
The rock quality is excellent, typical of the Tower sector, and the bolting is dense and reliable.
A benchmark 7c in Varasova, Mosquito is a popular choice among experienced sport climbers looking for pure endurance and precision.
