Kasteli Guide

A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.

At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

approach

Drive (5 min) or walk (30 min) from Masouri on the costal road towards Arginonta. Behind the first sharp right bend, there is sign 'To Kasteli' to the left.

Park at the parking area on your left just after the bend (37.01630, 26.94135).

Follow the sign and walk downhill, following cairns and red paint marks. You will arrive on the right side of the crag at sub-sector 'North Wall'.

ethic

PREPARE to leave nothing behind (trashbag, etc).
Use your own gear for toproping. Use fixed gear only for lowering. (See first section of guidebook for details.)
Minimize single-use plastic. No recycling on the island (yet).
Use established paths and close gates behind you.
Consider a donation to the rescue team (red boxes).
