Telendos Pescatore
	7a	★★ Y Viva Pancho Villa!	Sport 15m, 6	★★ Very Good
Still a hard boulder problem.

Sustained crimpy.

Armeos Spartacus
	5c ~5c+	★★★ 3 Stripes 1 4a 35m Second Easy. 2 5a 40m Sport lead by GT Very easy and beautiful traverse up a pillar. 3 5b 30m Second Easy 4 5c 20m Second In my opinion this length is the “hardest”. The start from the belay station is weird, especially with three people. Furthermore, the move to the next belay station is again tricky. 5 5c 20m Sport The guidebook mentioned this length as 5c+. However, there are plenty of jugs. You can pull them and the “crux” is done. In my opinion the fourth length is more tricky and therefore harder. 6 5b 30.m Second Easy.	Sport 180m	★★★ Classic
We climbed the route in a three-man team and started by sunrise. The route is great, especially if you combined it with the abseiling over the Grande Grotta as we did. I already climbed the route in 2019. Compared to 2019 some parts are more polished but still okay. However, I was surprise that some flakes sounded hollow. I wonder if these flakes still exist in another four years.
Fri 13th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Iannis
	6b	★★ Yaka	Sport 35m, 14	★★ Very Good
The route shares the first three bolts with the route “Amythos”. It is a very technical route. It took me some time to figure out how to solve the two cruxes. The route is ver interesting.
Fri 13th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Cœur d'Armeos
	6b	★★ Senza Freni	Sport 32m	★★ Very Good
Easy 6b. The route starts easy on a slab followed by a wall with a bulge (crux). However, the crux is done with a few moves.
	6a	★★ A tes Souhaits	Sport 30m	★★ Very Good
Easy and nice warm up.
Thu 12th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Arginonta Arginonta Valley Rock Tragos Wall & Rock'n Roll Cave
	6a	★★ L'Engeance	Sport 33m	★★★ Classic
Fun all the way up. The route constantly switches between big holds and small crimps.
	6a	★★★ Idoine	Sport 30m, 12	★★★ Classic
Very interesting route with a lot of different climbing style. Pockets, crimps, bulge and a small corner.
Thu 12th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Arginonta Arginonta Valley Alani Wall & Mona Lisa
	5c	★★ Flocki	Sport 28m, 13	★ Good
Warm up. #repeat
Wed 11th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Stankill
	6b+	★★ Bella Mora	Sport 25m, 11	★★ Very Good
Yes, it it easier if you go on the left, however at a certain point you have to go to the right. Furthermore, it helps a lot if you know where the fingerhole is.
	5c	★ Hugox	Sport 25m, 11	Average
Warm up.
Tue 10th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Afternoon
	6a	★★ Cet Humble Héros	Sport 20m	★★ Very Good
Easy warm up.
	6c	★★ Panacea — 3 attempts	Sport 32m, 16	★★★ Classic
An easy start, than a quite reachy crux on small crimps and polished places for the feet. Afterwards it gets easier. I needed a first attempt to figure out how to solve the crux. On my second attempt my foot slipped on some polished whatever. Finally, I reached the top with my third attempt.
	6c Hard	★★ Natsa-Natsa	Sport 32m, 14	★ Good
A very interesting start on small holds and almost nothing for the feet. However, with some balancy moves the start is okay. Than follows an easy middle part leading directly to the crux. I do not understand how to solve it in the first run, so I had to rest. The moves are on very small crimps and fingerholes with only a few tiny places to put your feet. Furthermore, the moves are reachy. I think it is harder than 6c.
Mon 9th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Vathy Little Eden
	6b+ Hard	★★ All or Nothing	Sport 25m	★★★ Classic
A very hard start and than an enjoyable climb to the top. In my opinion the route is harder than 6b.
	5c	★★ Beginner’s Luck	Sport 20m	★★ Very Good
Nice warm up.
	6a+	★ Dance Party	Sport 28m	Don't Bother
Weird moves on sharp holds. I did not like this route.
Sat 7th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Odyssey
	5c+	★★ Laertes	Sport 18m, 6	★★ Very Good
Very nice line for warm up. However, the bolting is quite far.
	6b+ Hard	★ Mikrotera Kalamarakia	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good
This is a very tough route. I did not figure out the correct sequence so I had to rest. I was very pumped after the juggy start. The crimpy upper part is easier but still demanding especially if you are pumped.
	6a+ Hard	★ Haryvdi	Sport 19m	★ Good
The start is very polished. I slipped and fell. The upper part is more enjoyable.
Fri 6th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Palionisos Heroes
	6b Hard	★ Statler + Waldorf	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good
I think the route is harder than 6a+. I think it is the same grad as the one to the left (Greek Freak). It starts with some moves on jugs and has an very interesting side move in the upper part.
	6b	★★★ Greek Freak	Sport 16m, 8	★★★ Classic
Jugs, Fun, Jugs, Fun, …
	6a	★ 1821	Sport 18m, 9	★ Good
Aua. Very sharp. Warm up.
Thu 5th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Palionisos Secret Garden
	6c Hard	★★ Bratsera	Sport 20m	★★ Very Good
Hard and pumpy. I reached the crux but could not figure out how to solve it. I had to rest. It toke me a while to understand the move. I had to go laterally before I could go up. The route felt harder than 6c.
	6a+	★★ Lucas Rambo	Sport 20m, 10	★★ Very Good
The crux is still sharp.
	6a	★★ Tobias' Birthday Present	Sport 18m, 9	★★ Very Good
Nice Route. Warm up.
Wed 4th Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Afternoon
	6a Hard	★★ Live Odessa	Sport 18m, 8	★★ Very Good
The crux is on small crimps. You have to take what is there. Hard for the grad.
	6a	★★ Blu	Sport 20m	Average
Nothing special.
	6b	★ L'Uomo che Non Credeva	Sport 18m	★★ Very Good
Nice climbing on a single tufa. The first three bolts are far a part for Kalymnos. However, there are good holds.
	5c	★ Nonno Ringo	Sport 18m, 11	★ Good
Warm up. Small crimps and a little bit polished. However, it is still a 5c.
Mon 2nd Oct 2023 - Kalymnos
Vathy Pezonda Valhalla
	5c	★★★ More than honey P1 1 5c 25m Sport	Sport 25m, 17
Great route with a nice 3D start and interesting upper part.
	5c	★ Borat	Sport 25m, 14	Average
Sharp. The last anchor is hard to clip, especially if you are smaller.
Fri 29th Sep 2023 - Kalymnos
Vathy Griffig
	6a+	★ Hoppla	Sport 15m, 10	★★ Very Good
Very interesting slab followed by a short corner. It is a short technical route with some balancy moves.
	6b	★★ Maja	Sport 15m, 9	★★ Very Good
Great route. However, the route is very short and the crux is solved with three powerful pulls.
	5c	★ Mathis on the Road	Sport 20m, 12	★ Good
Nice short warm up.

Arginonta Black Buddha
	5c+	★★ Karma	Sport 25m, 10	★★ Very Good
Warm up. #repeat
	6a+	★ Ganesha	Sport 30m	★★ Very Good
I liked the route. However, there is only one short crux over a bulge. Fun.
	6a+	★★ Mandala Ext	Sport 32m	★★ Very Good
The crux is directly over the anchor of Mandala. However, you need only two powerful pulls. Afterwards, it is a mowed meadow.
	6a+	★★ Mandala	Sport 22m	★★ Very Good
Great route. I really liked it. The crux was in the small chimney. However, I solved it in the saxon way of climbing. 😀
Wed 27th Sep 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Cœur d'Armeos
	5c	★★ Kiss Bulle	Sport 30m, 12	★ Good
Warm up. #repeat
	6a+	★★ Lord Dur	Sport 42m	★★ Very Good
This route is better than the one to the right (Sadi Kwa). Interesting line with a steep start and exciting problems in the upper part. The anchor is hard to clip when you are smaller.
	6b ~6b	★ Un Culte	Sport 36m, 17	★★★ Classic
All the way up you have to solve several problems so that the route does not become boring. Some of the problems are more demanding than the others. I really liked this route.
Tue 26th Sep 2023 - Kalymnos
Myrties Trois Îlots
	6a+	★★ Les Pros Se Tâtent	Sport 35m	★★ Very Good
The start was on small crimps. The crux was two moves on crimps with almost nothing for the feed.

I had a lot of fun in this route. I really like the upper part.
	5c+	★★ Chirlipipi	Sport 30m	★★ Very Good

Sat 8th Jul 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Afternoon
	6a ~5c+	★★ Svinelli	Sport 18m, 7
A very easy 6a. I guess it is more a 5c/c+ with a very friendly bolting.
	6c ~6c+	★ Claire	Sport 20m	Average
Easy start and a very hard upper part on crimps with more or less nothing for the feet. In my opinion this route is harder then the route Aratus, which is also a 6c.
	6a+	★ Live Kyiv	Sport 20m	★ Good
Crimpy.
Fri 7th Jul 2023 - Kalymnos
Skalia Ghost Kitchen
	6c+	★★ 2046	Sport 20m, 10	★★★ Mega Classic
My first onsight 6c+ on this island. 😀 The route felt like it was created for me. Every move in this route was exactly my style. Every hold, undercling or crimp fit perfectly in my hand. I loved the route, great one. However, it was a hard and exhausting climb. I had to change several times from right to left or the other way around. The moves were reachy and sometimes dynamic.
	6b	★★★ Persephone	Sport 28m, 12	★★ Very Good
The route was okay. The crux is the move over the bulge. Afterwards follow the big holds to the top.
	6a	★ Sacray's Price	Sport 32m, 14	Average
Weird route. One block was loose.
Wed 5th Jul 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Poets
	5c	★ Poets' Corner	Sport 20m, 11	Average
Warm Up. Hard to read.
	6c	★ Alceo	Sport 25m, 11	★★ Very Good
The route starts with an easy slab. The crux is close to the top over the small bulge. These moves are very fingery and technical. I did not find the solution and had to rest. For me the clip of the anchor was very difficult. I had only small crimps for my hands and nearly nothing for my feet. The last bolt is so close to the anchor that my harness and the bolt are at the same height. Pulling out the rope for clipping the anchor was very hard.
Tue 4th Jul 2023 - Kalymnos
Myrties Trois Îlots
	5c	★★ P'tit Waso	Sport 30m	★ Good
Nothing special. Warm up.
	6a+	★★ Lafete Alm	Sport 30m	★★ Very Good
Nice. The route passes two big flakes. Climbing the second flakes is very interesting, when you climb directly over the flakes. The move is easy, however, reaching the bolt is more difficult. The route shares the top with the route to the right, Qeen Couine.
Mon 3rd Jul 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Afternoon
	5c	★ Morteau Rico	Sport 18m	★ Good
Nothing special.

	6b	★★ Jana's Kitchen	Sport 25m, 10	★★★ Classic
A technical route. Climbing it was fun.
	6c Hard	★★ Aratus	Sport 25m	★★★ Classic
The route is not easy to read. I could not read the crux and fell. After figuring out how to climb the route, I reached the top.
Sat 1st Jul 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Odyssey
	5c+ Hard	★ Lotophagos	Sport 16m, 6	Average
The crux is between the second and third bolt. It felt like standing up without holds for either hands or feet.
	6a+	★ Poly Retsina No Good	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good
Good solid route with some not so obvious moves at the upper half. A lot of holes are chalked, however, most are useless. Still fun.
Fri 30th Jun 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Poets
	6a+	★★ Wala Wala	Sport 25m, 12	★★★ Classic
Very enjoyable route. The route starts with some fingery moves. Then followed three bulges. Each bulge was different and could be solved with a different climbing technique. Very interesting.
Fri 30th Jun 2023 - Kalymnos
Armeos Cœur d'Armeos
	5c	★★ Lara Clette	Sport 28m	★ Good
Nothing special. The crux is only one move, the rest is easier.
	6a	★★ Bar Bar	Sport 36m, 18	★ Good
Interesting route. Starts easy and gets harder towards the end with only small crimps and footholds.
Thu 29th Jun 2023 - Kalymnos

Tue 25th Oct 2022 - Kalymnos
Myrties Trois Îlots
	6a+	★★ Les Copains d'Abord 1 6a 33m Second Short crux shortly after the third bolt. 2 6a+ 35m Sport lead by GT The crux is the bulge after the crossing. The bulge has crimps, crimps and crimps. Do not stop climbing before you reach the belay-station with the fixed rope. Five meters below this belay-station is another one. 3 2 12m Second I guess the fixed rope should be replaced. 4 6a+ 38m Sport lead by GT The chimney is exhausting to climb. I used the saxonia style to climb the chimney. Sächsischer Kaminschrubber. 😀 5 5c 35m Sport lead by GT Easy pitch. 6 6a 25m Sport lead by GT Starting from belay station is interesting. Afterwards, is becomes easier.	Sport 180m	★★★ Classic
Demanding fun all the way up. We hiked down over Ourania back to our scooter at the yellow house. Somewhere on the way down we didn't find any cairns. Looking for the right way took us about 20 minutes. In total we needed 1,5h.
Mon 24th Oct 2022 - Kalymnos
Vathy Griffig
	6c	★★ The Dentist Terror	Sport 15m, 9	★★ Very Good
Short and pumpy on some tufa up to the top.
	6a ~5c	★ Ilo Kann's Halt!	Sport 20m, 10	★ Good
A very easy one. I guess it is not a 6a.
	6b	★★ Chlausezäuerli	Sport 20m	★★ Very Good
A few moves on crimps, then a good hold. The same again and again up to the top.
	6b+	★★ Chuchichäschtlitripp	Sport 20m, 11	★★ Very Good
Route with good holds.
Sat 22nd Oct 2022 - Kalymnos

Easy climb with some tufa.
	6a	★★ Pares	Sport 28m	★★★ Classic
Very nice line with some tufa on the way up. Good.

Arginonta Arginonta
	6b+	★★ Birds Without Arms Ext	Sport 30m, 14	★★ Very Good
A very short roof with a lot of holds and plenty of bolds. The interesting part is to traverse from the anchor of Birds without Arms to the entrance of the roof.
	6a+	★★ Birds Without Arms	Sport 25m, 11	★★ Very Good
Easy for the grad.
	6a+	★★ Klausis	Sport 30m, 10	★★★ Classic
Great route and interesting route.

Skalia Ghost Kitchen

Amazing line. I loved it. A lot of pockets and some underclings. Fun all the way up.
	6c	★★★ Resista	Sport 35m	★★★ Mega Classic
Great line. However, I fell at the crux. I reached the hold after the crux but could not find a position for my feet. My feet slipped and I fell. For me, it is a hard move. I will try again.
