execute the first point.
" Pairs created in advance or on a place of competitions by

to the requirements of UIAA.
" Minors are allowed only under responsibility of parents or

It is recommended to have antitick-borne inoculations and means

of dealing with belaying and they must also have their own equipment
that corresponds to the requirements of UIAA.

Financing: Financing support is provided by sponsors and organizers.

Area information: The first climb was made in 1978. On the 5-th
of October during the visit of Josip Broz Tito (the President of
Yugoslavia) in Macedonia, three climbers made the first ascent here
and named the route in his honour - "Titova". The climbers
were Jovan Poposki, Vasil Frangovski and Milan Santo.
After this climb in the following years more macedonian climbers
will start visiting this area more often and climb more and more
new lines, turning it into a regular playground for the next generations.
Today there are over 20 multipitch routes starting on different
parts of the rock and over 70 short (sport) routes in few sectors...
Getting there:
Convenient way is to use the train which reaches Demir Kapija from
Skopje only for 2 hours.
By car. Take the M1 (E75) highway from Skopje towards Gevgelija
and after driving some 120km you'll reach the small settlement of
Demir Kapija. Don't take the exit for the town but continue further
down the road and park the car after the first tunnel (between the
2 tunnels there are few parking spots on both sides of the road).
The approach: The river Vardar separates the settlement of Demir
Kapija from the big limestone rockface that rises up right from
the left bank of the river - making it hard to approach for climbing.
The easiest and fastest way to approach the routes is to start from
between the tunnels. For the trad routes on the main face when looking
towards the second tunnel go down to the right - follow the stream
for about 100 meters. When you'll see the river (river Vardar) go
to the right towards the rock and look for the fix steel cord that
will take you towards the routes - traversing over the river...
Food and accommodation: Camping, hut, hotel...There are many places
where you can set up a camp (for example on the meadow to the left
in front of the first tunnel or if possible near the place where
the "stream" enters river Vardar - near the start of the
travesre). Also you can contact the Macedonian sport-climbing federation
and make arrangements about using the hut "Kalabaster"
situated in Demir Kapija. There are many places where you can eat
or buy your own food and drinks in Demir Kapija... If looking for
more luxorious accomodation - we suggest the Popova Kula winery
and hotel...
