FrançaisThere are places you visit… and then there are places you return to. Kalymnos and Leonidio belong to that second category.
No need to choose between them — they follow each other by season.
Both share top-quality climbing rock, world-class routes, stunning views, unspoiled nature, the sea, good vibes, and legendary Greek hospitality and food.
That’s why we offer courses in both destinations — so you can climb all year long.

Kalymnos Leonidio lovers
When Kalymnos offers sectors in the shade and refreshing seabreeze in the warmer months, Leonidio waits with sunny crags and warm rock during winter – some in the shade too, of course 😉
Follow the season and get ready to climb all year.
