The sector lies peacefully on the foothills of the Erymanthos mountain range and consists of several distinct areas.
The main feature is a prominent west wall, divided into two separate parts. Here you’ll find mostly low-angle climbing on tufas, huecos, and crimps, mainly in the mid-grade range. Close to the road, there are two smaller sectors, one with a roof section (which is already quite rusty) and another in the riverbed, offering tufas and pockets.
On the opposite side, an east-facing wall provides a different style of climbing, mainly on dark, dense, and technical limestone, generally in the lower grades.
There is no camping nearby, and the surrounding villages are more or less abandoned, so accommodation options are very limited. It’s best to plan day trips or be fully self sufficient if you intend to stay longer.
Description
History
Like most other sectors in the wider Patras area, this one was mainly developed by the well known local pioneers Torelli✝︎, Thanopoulos, and Sotiropoulos✝︎.
The first phase of development took place in the mid to late 90s, with further additions continuing until the mid 2000s. Since then, a few routes have been nicely rebolted but many more are still waiting to be awakened from their long beauty sleep.
