Ob Sanaborju je hudourniška voda Bela izdolbla sotesko Bela ter s tem ustvarila prelepe naravne oblike, ki nudijo možnost uživanja v neokrnjeni naravi in plezanja. Bela naraste večinoma ob hudih nalivih, običajno pa je njegova struga bolj suha. Nenavadna, globoka soteska se pri Sanborju razširi, potem pa stisne v divjo tesen s slapovi in koriti vse do Tekačevega mlina nad Vrhpoljem, kjer se soteska Bela zaključi. Najbolj divji del poteka pod cerkvijo svetega Danijela. Soteska Bela ima številne brzice, gladko zbrušene stene, tolmune in na določenih delih zelo ozka korita. Nekateri tolmuni so dokaj globoki, med njimi pada voda v skočnikih, ki so visoki tudi do tri metre. Tolmuni soteske Bela predstavljajo priljubljena kopališča v vročih poletnih mesecih. Topla voda in gosta senca nudita obiskovalcem prijetno osvežitev. Strme previsne stene med Vrhpoljem, Belo in Zavetniki so priljubljene med prostimi plezalci.
Vrh plezališča Vipavska Bela je obiskovalcem dostopen z avtomobilom, saj je regionalna cesta Vrhpolje – Sanabor speljana v bližini. Poleg glavne stene, na kateri je veliko smeri, so plezališča speljana po vsej dolini Bele.
Zaklad je postavljen na lahko dstopnem mestu ob parkirišču. Dostop v sotesko Bele in k vstopnim točkam plezalnih smeri je možen po dobro vidnih stezah. Priporočamo daljšo stezo ob travniku, ker se poačsi spusti v sotesko. Vseeno je potrebna previdnost in primerna obutev.

Beside Sanabor, the torrential water of Bela hollowed out the Bela gorge, thereby creating beautiful natural forms that offer the possibility of enjoying unspoiled nature and climbing. Bela grows mostly during heavy downpours, but its bed is usually drier. The unusual, deep gorge widens near Sanbor, and then narrows into a wilderness with waterfalls and troughs all the way to Tekačev mlin above Vrhpolje, where the Bela gorge ends. The wildest part takes place under the church of St. Daniel. Soteska Bela has many rapids, smoothly polished walls, pools and, in certain parts, very narrow troughs. Some of the pools are quite deep, with water falling between them in cascades that are up to three meters high. The hot springs of the Bela Gorge are popular bathing spots in the hot summer months. Warm water and dense shade offer visitors pleasant refreshment. The steep overhanging walls between Vrhpolje, Bela and Zavetniki are popular among free climbers.
The top of the Vipavska Bela climbing area is accessible to visitors by car, as the regional road Vrhpolje - Sanabor runs nearby. In addition to the main wall, on which there are many routes, there are climbing routes all over the Bela valley.
The cache is placed in an easily accessible place next to the parking lot. Access to the Bela gorge and to the entry points of the climbing routes is possible via clearly visible paths. We recommend a longer path along the meadow, because it gradually descends into the gorge. However, caution and appropriate footwear are required.
