Before you go

Moravský Kras after rain

Moravský Kras: limestone boulders in the forest, in South Moravian Region, Czechia. The nearest other areas here are Kamienna Góra (109 km), Bor (126 km) and Ostaš (138 km).

Is Moravský Kras dry today?

The answer at the top of this page comes from the German weather service's forecast and how fast limestone dries, and it's updated through the day. Nobody checks the rock in person, so touch the holds before you climb.

How long does Moravský Kras take to dry after rain?

Moravský Kras is limestone. It sheds rain quickly, though cracks, pockets and tufas can seep for days after heavy rain. These times are the model's estimates, tuned on Fontainebleau sandstone and not checked here. After a proper soaking (2 mm of rain or more), sunny, windy boulders need about 8 hours of dry weather, most of the forest about 14 hours, and shaded ones about 19 hours. A light shower needs less. Wind, sun and dry air shorten the wait, and above about 92% humidity the model won't call the rock dry.

Can you climb at Moravský Kras when the rock is wet?

Wet rock is slick, and pockets and cracks seep for days. If the holds feel greasy, come back later.
