unknown boulder in kardamena field © jimecallaw
Crag features
Great, extensive granite bouldering up to Font 7c+ which is ideal for those in transit to/from Kalymnos with a few hours or more to spare, but this venue is worth a visit of a few days in its own right. At its best in cool winter conditions, but climbable all year round. Lots of problems have good landings and a pad is not essential. Beware of the occasional snapping chickenhead and check your landing before committing!There are some bigger buttresses further up the hillside which look to offer single-pitch or even multi-pitch trad crack climbs - bring a rack and explore!
Approach notes
Situated to the North East from the go kart track just outside Kardamena town. From the go kart track, continue on the road for a few hundred metres East until a rough 4x4 track leads up the hill for a few hundred metres. The boulder field can be seen to the West of the track. Make sure you close any livestock gates on the way to the boulders.

| really high quality rock, I was shocked how good. Some tall blocks so scout your decent first. Definitely hot though. yodadave - 15/Sep/14 |

| This is a good place for all levels of climber. Very hot in the summer so ensure you take necessary precautions - shades, suncream and water. objock - 07/Sep/12 |
