Pag climbing
climbing and via ferrata
Croatia is an attractive destination for climbing enthusiasts, while Pag is one of the most popular destinations due to the amazing landscape shaped by the wind Bora. On the beach Beritnica, in the shallow sea, nature has arranged three large stone rocks and this natural installation is an unforgettable sight while the spectacular cliff Stogaj, a favorite destination for climbing adventurers, rises above the beach.
Stogaj is probably the most popular rock for climbing because of its shape, but above all because of the ambience and breathtaking view. It stands literally above the beach, set up exactly as if someone had designed it to protrude into the blue sea bay and to invite you to climb to its top. This pebble bay and rocks are probably the most photographed motifs of Pag. There are also special signs for sport climbing in these places. Detailed instructions for climbing the rocks Zamak and Stogaj can be found on the LINK.Stogaj offers almost 70 marked routes over four sections.
Absolute beginners can try the short, easy climb of ten meters, while experienced climbers can try the Scorpion or Spyder route. After such a challenging adrenaline activity, physically demanding, relax by swimming in the crystal clear sea.

Via ferrata Life on Mars
Life on Mars trail was made more attractive by buidling the first sea Via ferrata in Croatia in the length of 100 m. Via Ferrata is intended for somewhat more demanding active athletes and requires the use of an adequate equipment (gloves, climbing harness, safety set-absorber and climbing helmet) and is a bridge over the sea that connects the bay Slana and Cape Sušac. The duration of the mentioned passage is between 10 and 15 minutes, its height is 1-2 meters above the sea. It stands as a difficult section. Access to the sea Via Ferrata is accessed from Slana Bay, by following a marked trail, 2 km from Ručica Beach in Metajna.
Ferrata connects the circular hiking trail Life on Mars, which until now had to be walked through the sea in the length of 100 m.
