routes for traditional climbing.
From Litochoro: We take the road to Prionia or Stavros Refuge (Mpountolas). We pass the monastery of s.Dionisios. After 8km we park on the left side of the road with the distinct sign "Dasiki Thesi Zilnia" and the pavilion. Right down of the parking starts the path to the cliff. You can either walk down the slope (around 15-20m in the forest-keep always to the right) or you can abseil with two 60m ropes. The abseil point is on the second/third right turn of the path, on the edge of the cliff. The abseil meets the route "Kalokairino visma/Summer Bolt".
From the top of each route, follow the path to the forest above. Keep to the right direction, but not at the edge of the cliff (there is also a path with sone dangerous points) . The main path is marked with signs and goes to the parking site.
Did you know that you can create an account to record, track and share your climbing ascents? Thousands of climbers are already doing this.
