Lovka
Crag Summary
A wall that goes on forever, pristine setting and beautiful long lines on great quality rock that is sharp and new. Recently developed and well-bolted. We climbed at the far end for some lovely 5s and excellent 6s. We saw lots of good looking harder stuff on the way in.
It does face south so be ready to climb in the sun, a crisp winter’s day is probably when this crag is at it’s absolute best. The base has enough scrubby trees to find a shady rest spot.
We parked and walked down from the top which meant driving through a small, quiet village and parking at a quiet dead-end track. The topo explains that you can walk up from the bottom too.

Nearby
Close and convenient from the Montenegro capital Podgorica. A few galleries/museums to explore but our surprise highlight was eating at the one and only Indian restaurant Masala Art. Surprising but really excellent!
Wow Factor
A never-ending wall in serene peace.
Approach
10 min walk with a small rocky downhill to the first climbs, add at least another 10-15 mins to get to the other end.
Shade
South facing therefore sun for most the day. Gradually gets shade in the late afternoon. Scrubby trees for shade at the base.
Playtime Base
A bit rocky and uneven but enough space and the edges are sloped rather than severe
Harder Climbs
On Lovka wall you have 5s through to high 7s. Topo shows some harder routes on the next wall down though we did not check these out.
Kiddy Climbs
No incuts at the start of the easier climbs mean kids can have fun too and cop some amazing exposure.
