A nice little crag with several routes, mainly in the lower grades. The routes are all traditional, and a couple are classics. It is easily accessible from Limassol, and only about 45 minutes from Pafos. | |
Directions: | From Episkopi take the B6 heading west. Continue on the B6, passing through the army base. After passing the school (on the right) the road descends quite sharply. As the road starts to flatten out, Exhibition can be seen on the right (army polo pitch on the left). To park continue past the crag, and just as the road bears left and climbs back up the valley, take the small road on the right (towards Agios Georges). Park in the small area 200m further one on the right. Retrace your steps back to the crag on foot. Just before the road bends right and starts to ascend steeply, a small path can be seen on the left, leading up to the crag. Time from the road to the crag foot is approx. 5 minutes. |
