Description
“Apalouza” is a multi-pitch sport route in the Tower sector of Varasova, totaling 120 meters over three pitches. The route follows a natural, graceful line on slab and small arete, offering fluid and rhythmic climbing throughout.
The difficulty remains consistently around 6b, with beautiful technical footwork and clean sequences. The first pitch is the most demanding, requiring precision and balance, while the upper pitches offer more open, continuous movement.
The rock is compact and highly textured, with excellent friction and clear features. Equipped with 19 bolts, two belays, and a final anchor ring, the route provides safe and enjoyable sport climbing.
Apalouza stands out for its steady flow, movement variety, and natural beauty, making it a favorite for climbers who enjoy sustained technical climbing in an inspiring setting.
