Description

Overlooking Kozan Koy village, the Main Crag is the inaugural sector in this area. It offers an excellent selection of vertical and slightly overhanging routes with a welcome range of grades and styles. The rock is coarse limestone featuring tufas, edges, pockets, and distinctive “broccoli” textures.

Here, you can enjoy the shortest approach and the highest concentration of quality lines in the area, including short and bouldery, long endurance routes, and athletic tufa climbs. Say hi to the local goat shepherds when you pass them on your approach or in the parking area.

Conditions

This is a southeast-facing crag that is perfect for sunny winter days. Best in the early winter season before the heavy rains as many lines are prone to seepage. The short approach also makes it a good option for long summer evenings (the wall at Summer Solstice gets shade around 3:00 p.m.).

History

The first crag developed in the Larnacas tis Lapithou / Kozan area. Kyriakos Rossidis and Stefanos Papadopoulos started developing in 2019, then Stefanos, Andreas Rossidis and Andreas Parparinos continued developing throughout 2020-2022.
