A FREE Climbing Guidebook of Profitis Elias Argolis (GREECE)

by Mandragora » Thu Mar 18, 2021 8:13 am

The rock climbing around Argolis region is all on excellent solid grey limestone. The majority of the routes are single pitch sport climbing routes, though there are some trad climbing routes as well. The Argolis area claims to receive over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year and is a popular holiday destination. It also means that it is possible to rock climb virtually all year round in the Argolis region.

Established Routes & Projects
Although the rock of Profitis Elias looks very attractive for trad climbing, it has not been climbed often and therefore for the time being, in this area there are three established routes and two projects (routes to be climbed soon).

For the time being, the established routes are the following:

- O Kipos Tou Profiti UIAA V+, 110 m.
- Diaberis Pothos UIAA VI, 100 m.
- Violontselou UIAA VI-, 100 m
