Routes in Cairo

BEWARE OF THE SLOPING FALL BELOW. Within the cluster of boulders in the area. This one is the first you encounter. On the smoothest face of this boulder there are plenty of pockets and bulbs to ascend on. Easy for new climbers.

Short traverse right, starting with some good jugs to a hard move and a sharp finishing hold. WARNING TOP OUT IS SKETCHY. Would recommend the finishing jug left of the crack.

On a slightly overhanging face, follow the L shaped line to a good top out.

Climb a pocket covered slab towards a juggy vertical top-out.

On the wall just right of "The lonely boulder", climb towards the obvious longitudinal crack. This is the original line to follow, a variation is possible starting just below the crack, but features less secure holds.

A tension based problem, with nice pinches and crimps. Hard top out. Climb the third boulder left while facing South (towards the Wadi Degla path). Standing start.

When facing the northern face climb the leftest boulder up and over.

Climb on the right half of the front face of Titanic, starting with two hands in an under-cling at the center of the boulder.

This boulder is a beautiful introduction to climbing on small edges and balancing on microscopic foot holds. The first of its kind: “the edge of time” boulder is covered in tiny crystals and climbs like a gem. Spread yourself thin over its smooth surface to make it straight to the top.

A short but cute sit-start boulder which originally exits directly but can alternatively (harder) exit right.

An incredible four meter roof crack which links to a top out on to the lip of the Wadi Degla Canyon. A great opportunity to practice foot jams and climbing efficiently. After climbing the crack mantle over the bulge and stand up. WARNING the highest rock formations at the lip of the canyon are crumbly.
