19 Oct Kalymnos new climbing guide

 
The new Kalymnos Climbing Guidebook is now being printed: the 2010 edition ended up with 360 pages (that’s 60 more pages compared to the last edition).
 
Here (www.climbkalymnos.com downloadable version of all eight pages of Sikati Cave straight from the new book. On the first two page spread with the general view of the area and the approach paths, check out also the location of a new crag called The Beach: with both slabby and more athletic routes, this little crag comes to fill a long-standing need on Kalymnos for crags next to the water and with shade in the afternoon. There’s only a handful of routes there at the moment, but a lot of promise.
