Brief <img src="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_m6769f5f0_.jpg" BORDER=0 align="right">When we packed our backpacks for our travel to India I couldn’t persuade Premek not to take his climbing shoes and chalk bag with him.
Text I asked for some information about climbing in the south of India on the “lezec web”. I got only 3 answers saying that something suitable for climbing could be close to Hampi, but it hadn’t a great value. Finally, we spent 4 days there in the middle of February. It was quite late in this period of year for enjoying climbing there because of high temperatures. Climbing was possible only between 7-9 in the morning and 17-19 in the evening. But we didn’t mind that, because Hampi granite is very hard and craggily and our fingertips noticed that fact very quickly. In 3 days we had to resign on such activity.<br> And, if it is worthwhile to go there and if it is the area of limitless bouldering possibilities, thing over by yourself. At all events, if you have a chance to travel around it makes sense to stop there and arrange some climbing in this beautiful rocky landscape. <p> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_m3bff213f.jpg" NAME="Obrázek1" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_m3ee203fa.jpg" NAME="Obrázek2" BORDER=0></center><br> <b>Information about Hampi:</b><p> <i>Best time to visit:</i> December – January (in February, it begins quite hot there)<p> <i>Rock:</i> Granite (the most of boulders are on the edge or over sharp ledges; their beginnings are overhanged)<p> <i>Area:</i> Tens of square kilometers of landscape covered by boulder of many sizes and shapes (the only very limited number of routes is mentioned in the guide). <p> <i>Guidebook:</i> „Guidebook“ (app. 12 pages) was made and routes were described by German climber Hari Vier. You can buy a copy in front of the main entrance to the „rock area“ in Rollo guest house for 1.5 USD (the difficulty of the opened depicted routes is of 3-8b Fb). You can also rent a landing pad there (for about 1 USD a day). By the way, a new Guidebook should be issued in November 2006 and should include also a nearby Badami area.<p> <i>Other areas:</i> Badami (70km from Hampi) a for other see <A HREF="http://www.dreamroutes.org/etc/allclimbs.html" target="_blank">www.dreamroutes.org/etc/allclimbs.html</A><p> <b>Expenses:</b><p> <i>Transport:</i> Flight to Bombai (from Prague with Aeroflot, 700USD), by train to Guntakal or Humbi (16hours,11USD) then by bus to Hospet (2USD;from Guntakal you must change for Hospet in Bellary). From Hospet to Hampi it is less then 12km by bus or by rycksha.<p> <i>Accommodation:</i> The cheapest hostels are on the other side of the river Tungabhadru (the most opened routes are there). Hotels range from 1 - 5USD for a double room and night (you should have your own mosquito net, because they do not provide it).<p> <i>Meal:</i> In the range from 0.5-2USD for lunch (1l of water – 0.3USD, 660cl of beer – 1.5USD)<p> <b><i>Other activities and tips:</i></b><p> Hampi area is famous for its old monuments and temples. You can hire a motorbike (3.5USD a day) or a bike (1USD) and go for a trip to a near dam or water cascades.<br> On your travel back to Bombai you can stop and relax on the beach of Arabian Sea. I could recommend you to stay in Gokarna, which is in Karnataka state like Hampi; so to avoid staying in Goa due to beaches are quite touristy and busy there.<p> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_6da07836.jpg" NAME="Obrázek3" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_6be15c39.jpg" NAME="Obrázek4" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_e4dd941.jpg" NAME="Obrázek5" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_m4574cc9d.jpg" NAME="Obrázek6" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_3966e0f2.jpg" NAME="Obrázek7" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_mf97eff1.jpg" NAME="Obrázek8" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_m6769f5f0.jpg" NAME="Obrázek9" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_4b82bb8.jpg" NAME="Obrázek10" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_2c1a6bb4.jpg" NAME="Obrázek11" BORDER=0></center><br> <center><IMG SRC="fotos/clanky/hampi06/hampi_html_m6c60409e.jpg" NAME="Obrázek12" BORDER=0></center><br>
