Übersicht

Kalkstein

A compact, but excellent crag. Home to probably the best sport routes on the island. The rock is hard limestone, reaching heights of 28m. The crag is split into several sectors and in such a way that it is always possible to climb in the shade.

Beschreibung

Great all year round crag. Takes a day or so to dry out after sustained rain (rare). Busy (by Cyprus standards) at weekends and holidays during the Spring and Autumn. The Extreme View Cafe, located 1 km back up the road to Pafos, is highly recommended.

Zustieg

<5 Min.

To find the crag, follow the B6 heading east from Pafos. About 14km east of Pafos, take the F616 road northwards situated just east of the AsproKemmos dam (signposted Mamonia, Agios Georgios, Agios Nikolaos). Continue on this road following the line of the Dhiarizos river for 10km. Continue through Agios Georgios and for another 4km, passing the Extreme View cafe. The crag becomes visible a few hundred meters further as the road drops down. Obvious parking area on the left.

Ethik

Please be aware that birds sometimes nest in the top of the crack a third of the way up Khoros Tis Siopis (main slab) and in the top of the flake halfway up Kalitechnis (main wall). Try to avoid these routes if it looks like this has happened (usually April through May).
