High on a hillside overlooking the Plaka, the sea and into the Leonidio valley agricultural fields and polytunnels. High up above Theos and Loveledge although you get to the crag from above. Mainly tufa and headwalls in the 6th to 7th grade.Starts to come into the shade late afternoon. Newly developed crag with some crunchy rock and some spaced bolting.
From the Leonidio valley drive north along the coastal road towards Athens. After about 9km just before a right-hand bend take a left turn marked by a wooden signpost painted blue with white writing indicating the Prophitis Ilias Chapel and LImnes. Follow this partially tarmaced road uphill until it turns into a stone and gravel track. Pass the obvious Prophitis Ilias chapel on the left and continue straight on until a fork in the track by a yellow sign with red writing indicating several destinations, including Vaskina. Keep left here and then, as the track heads left towards the Limnes Chapel, take the right fork. At the next fork, by a grey stone pillar and a low building, keep left and follow the track (quite rough and with a line of vegetation in the middle) to the crest of a hill. From here you can see the antenna described in the Panjika guidebook. Follw the road and park by the antenna. Continue along the track for around 20m and then follow a path marked by cairns and later by blue dots down and right along the hillside to a col. From here you can see the crag up the ridge to your right. Follow the path up towards the fixed ropes to the base of the routes. NB the blue dots are helpful in finding the way to the col, but are part of a marked footpath and don't take you all the way to the crag.
