On TheCrag, we try to maintain where climbing is allowed, but before you go climbing, we always recommend checking in the [Database of the Czech Mountaineering Association](https://www.horosvaz.cz/databaze-skal-cr/) that the area is open for climbing - this is not only a matter of permission from nature conservation or the land owner, but also could be due to the risk of falling trees, unstable rock or nesting birds. Here is an explanation of the icons on their website:
red circle means currently a total ban on climbing (often only seasonal). When it is only halfway, climbing is prohibited only on certain rocks
🐔 means a temporary closure that will be resolved soon (mostly nesting birds). Red is a general ban on climbing in the area, orange is a ban on climbing only on certain rocks.
