Description Suggest change

Bolted in 2012 with more than 30 routes. Many require an 80 meter rope and up to 24 quickdraws. Climbing is vertical with some slightly overhanging rock. Routes often have mixture a of sharp grey rock and well spaced pockets on orange rock. Shade until 1:30pm. Right side gets sun first.

Do not climb here from July to Mid-October due to falcon nesting. This info comes directly from the 2023 guidebook by Aris. 

Eleonora Falcons lay eggs in late July, raise their chicks from Late August to Late September, and then continue south by mid-October. 

Getting There Suggest change

From the Irox boat drop off, walk to the right along a rocky trail following cairns going around the corner. Around the corner, start going uphill and the trail will turn into dirt and you'll pass Pescatore. A few minutes past Pescatore, take the left fork going up and you'll see the cliff towering in the sky. 20-25 minutes, slightly steep.
