Situated on the Mediterranean coast of the Peloponnese peninsula, surrounded by beautiful rock formations, the small town of Leonidio is a perfect destination for climbing in Greece. There are many reasons to consider Leonidio as 'the new Kalymnos' but the local climbing cooperative, who have published this guidebook, present the area with its own history and unique qualities. This edition also describes routes (including quite a number of long multi-pitch climbs) in the nearby area of Kyparissi.
There are more than 40 introductory pages describing the area, climate, wildlife, how to get there, accommodation, suggestions for rest days, access to crags and the history of climbing around Leonidio. The photo-topos cover over 2,655 bolted climbing routes (and 300 extensions) and 40 multi-pitch routes across 95 sectors. This is 110 more routes and 2 extra sectors - Fortress and Kykamino - than in the previous edition.
