Josif Fleger is the older, easier line on the same north-facing Trebević crag as Bijele Stijene. It follows diagonal grooves and ledges through broken ground, crossing the newer route at several marked junctions. The line is graded A/B, with 250 metres of cable and about 90 metres of height gain.
The shaded wall can remain damp after rain and hold snow into spring. From the Trebević Stari Grad mountain lodge, allow around 15 minutes for the approach, 30 minutes for the route and 20 minutes for the marked return past the Tri Budalaša spring.
The national route catalogue currently says the old cable and anchors need complete rehabilitation and does not recommend using the line. Confirm that the local steward has reopened it before setting out. The map coordinate is the shared crag access, not the exact start.
How we know this
BOA has not inspected Josif Fleger. The figures on this page come from published sources, not from our own survey. Cable and anchor condition changes. Nothing here is a substitute for checking the route yourself before you climb.
Condition reports
Written by visitors who have climbed Josif Fleger, not by BOA, and not checked by us before they appear. Treat them as one climber's account on one day: useful, but never clearance to climb.
No condition reports yet. If you have climbed this route, yours would be the first.
