Poets

International > Europe > Greece > Kalymnos

Description

This sector is the closest to the towns of Armeos & Masouri, with one of the highest concentrations of classic, moderate routes. Poets has 6 different walls: Iannis, Coeur d'Armeos, Main, right, White shark and Zeus. This is one of the more crowded walls on the island, for good reason. The rock and climbing are iconic of Kalymnos. Shade in the morning.

Getting There

Walk, or scooter, to the "Wild Sport" gear shop, in Armeos. The is a steep driveway is to the right of a spa, cafe, and gear shop. The steep driveway ends at a flight of stairs and you'll pass a gelato shop on your right. Follow the stairs up and you'll see trails.
