Same difficulty as Walk in JP since you can do the first move by crossing right hand to the jug.

Really good. We don't have a lot of vert climbing in Penteli, so no local standards in this style, but it seemed to me closer to 6C+ or at most 7A if I compare to areas with more technical climbing.

Amazing, technical climbing. High consequence techy slab top out (esp. when turning the arete), but the difficulty is lower down.

Very nice!

BETA SPOILER: No need to go dynamically to the undercling if you use a toehook. Also the line climbs well and does not seem particularly reachy with the defined starting holds.

Great bottom moves, very awkward chimney topout

Honestly kind of annoying. Hardest part was not dabbing with the foot.

Great moves, aesthetic line, but very chossy rock. I broke a bit of the undercling before the crux, making it larger. The move got easier, but I'm inexperienced with this grade, so I am unsure about the new grade. Still harder than all the 7Bs I have done. The undercling flexes and may break more. I really hope this climb doesn't break completely, it's so fun!

Nice moves, but sharp rock.

Very interesting! There's a lot of rock around the start, the way I did it all blocks protruding from the main one were off (Felt hard 7A/+ that way). See video beta for Kopi Luwak to get an idea of the first couple of moves.

Why do the lower graded problems always get few stars even if they're excellent? This one has great movement.

Perhaps the best in this grade near Athens.

Very nice. The top needs some cleaning. Also, the final jug has a crack and seems like it could break off, so use a soft touch/grab it low.

You don't get "fridge" compression climbs at such a low grade often. Nice!

Beware of very loose large blocks before the anchors, on your right side. Do NOT stand on them. Can't recommend the route until they are cleaned.

Nice one. Beautiful rock (though a bit sharp and fragile in some parts).

Fun! Felt 6B+/C

Highball, but a one move wonder. the top needs confidence and good footwork, but is not very hard. I found that there is also a nice easier variation (around 6B), taking a small shallow pocket to the left of the good sidepull edge, to make the big move shorter.

The crux is up high, so you need to feel solid at the grade. The climbing is perfect.

Fun! May be on the harder end for the grade.

Classic line! The good edge on the arete has broken, only half of it is left. The problem is still similar difficulty, but the remaining part of the edge is also cracked and very fragile. If you attempt it now, take the edge on its lower part which is more solid, don’t match it, and place the last heelhook with caution… If the whole edge breaks, the problem will still be probably possible, but significantly harder.

Very fun!! Condition-dependent.

Brilliant line. Technical, slabby, and crimpy. Different style from the rest of the crag.

Absolute classic! Fantastic movement. The grade may depend on how well you can highstep (I am pretty flexible).

Very nice when you get problems of similar difficulty but different styles right next to each other. This short one tests body tension, the neighbor is all about technique and high stepping.

One of the best local problems at this grade range.

Hard mantle for the grade.

Great climb, solid at the grade. To me this felt more technical, more body-position dependent, and harder than Orizontas, another great compression testpiece of Attiki.

Getting established and the first move is much easier with a kneebar.

Distinct crux between the 3rd-4th clips. Enjoyable but easy climbing from there to the top.

Not the most aesthetic looking line, but really fun, technical movement

Heel-toe cam!

Great moves! Ran a lap on this after finishing Xalemporas. Felt easier than the 6C grade, but I think it's because of how well I dialed the start moves when projecting Xalemporas. No clear crux move - power endurance.

Excellent problem! The crux move feels easy when you get it and close to impossible when you do not -it's all in how you position the heel.

Tricky for the grade. Good mantle practice.

Very fun. Kneebar was crucial.

Starting at the big sidepull undercling jug of KK (lower than two crimps that the topo shows as the start) adds a couple moves and makes a good problem even better.

Grade suggestion may be personal, because it's a compression climb on jugs and slopey jugs, which I enjoy a lot.

Not sure if a hold has broken, but this (as a sit start) is a sandbag at 5+. More like 6A+/6B by the local standards. First move from the two crimps down low to the big edge requires hip flexibility and good crimp strength.

Good climbing on crimps. The route is fully bolted - sport, not trad.

Fun, technical arete climbing

Chossy, crumbly rock in the bottom sequence (first to second clip). good crimps after that.
