Belvedere

Belvedere crag is located between Predeal and Pârâul Rece, in the vicinity of the Belvedere chalet. You can easily reach the chalet by car and a 15 minutes walk from the chalet will take you to the base of the crag. The rock is solid limestone, with wall height between 10 and 60 metres. The left sector is sheltered by trees and ideal for climbing during summer days. The central and left sectors are much higher and directly exposed to the sun. __Bolting:__ Most of the routes are equipped with glued bolts and expansion bolts. The old protection hardware has been replaced, but there are routes where you can still find rusted bolts or old pitons. Re-bolting is still in progress. __Sun:__ The sun shines on the wall at noon, so you can climb in the sunlight until sunset. The crag has SW exposure. __Rain:__ When it rains the wall gets wet, making climbing conditions much harder. After long rainy periods, the left sector dries slowly because it is shaded by trees. __Seasons:__ You can climb here in excellent conditions starting early in the spring until late autumn. Its location near the Bucegi Mountains makes it a comfortable place to climb even during hot summer days.
