Despite being one of the newest European countries, it feels as though things have stood still in time over the last four decades. Modern Volkswagens fight for road space against haggard communist cars, donkeys pulling carts and drunken cyclists. It is here, in the depths of Eastern Europe,a somewhat different bouldering trip awaits. On these hills, criss-crossed with sheep trails, lie vast amounts of barely touched, sculptured granite blocs; sitting, admiring the stunning mountain scenery. From a distance the huge granite blocs portray many of the features seen Bishop and Hampi. The style is predominately crimpy and the coarse rock is far from forgiving, so looking after the fingers is essential. Fortunately, many of the problems are basic and easy to read, but it's one thing figuring out what to do, and another to actually do it. Furthermore flat, grassy landings protect most problems, therefore requiring no more than one or two crash pads. With all the prerequisites, it seems the Prilep is destined to become a major bouldering venue in the not so distant future. Locals first began to climb the impressive granite boulders in Slovenian climbers came armed with billhooks, sheers, and brushes of all sizes to explore the hillsides that overlooked the famous tobacco fields of Prilep. On hearing the rumours, Rok Shishernik led several trips with a strong team to open numerous new problems and scoped out new sectors. Today, climbing in Prilep is expanding, turning the area into one of the world's most exciting places for bouldering. Yet, whilst traces of chalk are now a common sight, seeing anyone other than the local Sheppard is a rarity. The scope to develop new boulder problems and even areas is enormous. For most visiting climbers efforts should be concentrated across the three main hillsides of Kamena Baba, Dabinca and Treskvec. It is in these areas that the most compact circuits on the best rock can be found. Although, each area is vastly different in what it offers, one common denominator is they all present that rare and privileged experience, being one of the first to sample one of the most beautiful bouldering areas in Europe. The chances of seeing anyone, bar the local shepherd and his dog, whilst wandering the chaotic hillsides are slim, leaving you to enjoy the climbing and scenery with just a few select friends. Unfortunately, the best rock and problems are found in the furthest sectors from the road, nearer the top of the hillside. The steep 25 minute walk-in may sound monstrous, but this simply adds to the experience allowing you to really appreciate the spectacular location and superb views over both the tobacco fields and town below. As you contour round the boulder strewn hillside, your hands sweat and mind race at the sheer number of boulders on offer. Where do you start and which of the many lines on offer are the classics? For those wishing to explore more, the boundaries are limitless as the ridgeline is riddled with boulders and continues for miles. Numerous high quality first ascents on virgin rock await those willing to carry a crash pad further than their predecessors. An accessible venue being compact and close to the car can make for a pleasant change; your legs will thank you. The area hosts a collection of exceptional problems on arguably the best rock in Prilep. Although the number of developed blocs is less than a quarter of that at Kamena Baba the quality here more than makes up for the lack of quality. That said Dabinca has the best potential for putting up five star first ascents, with easy pickings for those willing to walk more than 15 minutes from the car. The main benefit of this area is that it is much higher than the rest making it a good option for hot days or an escape from low lying cloud. Be aware, the road does get cut off in snow. Once again the views are fantastic and the sunsets memorable. The developed problems are a little more hit and miss at Tresavec, with the rock quality varying greatly from boulder to boulder. Wild Nothing V5, Treskavec. If one problem summed up Prilep bouldering; high, crimpy, amazing moves and a superb setting! Kush Kaval V6, Dabinca. A problem that screams to be climbed. Follow the rising line of large, juggy Heucos up to the centre of a proud house size boulder. V5 from standing. Cocon V6, Kamena Baba. A rare and unusual sculpted feature, not often seen on granite. Bring your guns, it sure is burly! Babastic V7, Kamena Baba. Babastic is one of a trio of neighbouring highball V7s, which arguably make up the three best problems in Prilep. Pornic V7, Dabinca. Marmelade V8, Kamena Baba. A popular classic, despite being hard for the grade; it must be good! Two tactics can be utilized… brute strength or cunning trickery. Suits indoor climbers. Ni-Mus V8, Kamena Baba. Smuggled over from Bishop. Seeking out this hidden gem is a must do for those operating at the grade. Waves V9, Dabinca. This featured granite wall seems unique to Macedonia. Perfectly sculpted, high quality granite. Excalibur V9, Kamena Baba. Stand start goes at a brilliant V5. Terrormeer V11, Treskavec. Physical, Gymnastic yet precarious climbing on perfectly sculpted pinches up an impressive golden prow. Looks like it should be in Hampi. Useful Information and local guidebook The local currency is the Macedonian Denar, although some places do accept euros at a less favourable exchange rate. It is also worth buying the Prilep guidebook in advance, which is up to date as of March and is one of the best guidebooks I have ever used. The topos, anecdotes, information and layout are superb, as are the numerous inspiring photos. Season The winter months provide the best conditions for those seeking out the harder classics. There is also the opportunity to make use of the nearby ski resort too if you do visit in winter. Summers in Macedonia are way too hot to boulder and there is very little shade amongst the boulders. Prilep is an hour and a half drive from the airport. Where to stay and what to eat Macedonia is very cheap! Or you can book a bed in the Monastery at Treskavec for a small donation; this is a little more secluded being out of town but does have amazing views. Prilep also has lots of AirBnB hosts, which can be even cheaper. Several bakeries offer good lunch options for less than 50p. Rock Climbing Areas Europe. United States. Central and South America.
