The new edition for the climbing mecca in the Peloponnese is out! Local development continues unabated – 14 new sectors and 355 new routes have been added compared to the 2022 edition. The current climbing guidebook for Leonidio & Kyparissi – Edition 2025 now contains an impressive 2673 single-pitch and 49 multi-pitch routes spread over 111 sectors.
The guidebook is very clearly laid out and provides all the necessary information in a compact format. Each sector is preceded by an introductory text and a detailed description of the approach. Further information follows as a tabular overview (number of routes sorted by grade) and in pictogram form (altitude, orientation, wall gradient, access time, parking situation, child-friendliness, GPS coordinates, …). The topos are laid over color photographs and are very easy to read.
The climbing guide is accompanied by a 72-page brochure containing further information on how to get there, history, climate and local infrastructure, suggestions for break days, local cuisine, accommodation, soft tourism, … as well as the development of climbing around Leonidio. This division into climbing guidebook + brochure is an interesting idea, which has reduced the size and weight of the guidebook.
With the purchase of this climbing guide you support local, sustainable projects of the Panjika Cooperative as well as the local climbing community, which finances new openings and refurbishments of old climbing routes far beyond the borders of Leonidio.
Thank you for staying true to the original and have fun climbing.
