As this will be our last year in the Balkans, Ko and I decided to make it the "Year of the Via Ferrata".
As soon as he returned from S.F., we bought some climbing gear and, the very next day, we are on the road at 3:30 a.m. to reach Mucanj mountain for our first via ferrata ascent. We started at sunrise, to beat the heat, and reach the summit by 9:30. The scrambling, ridges, and vertical ascents were incredible. This is a hobby that we will really enjoy on weekend getaways this year and, lucky for us, there are plenty of established via ferratas across the Balkans. On the way home, we visited Gostilje waterfall, Sirogojno village, and Stopica Cave. Looking forward to the next adventure!
