Description Suggest change

Sunny, vertical to less-than-vertical compact gray rock routes with a great view of the town of Leonidio. There are ~20 routes here heavy in the 6s (5.10 to 5.11-) range that are technical, slabby routes.

Rain: Not a good sector for rainy days. All routes get wet.
Shade: Sun most all day. A bit of shade early in the morning.

Getting There Suggest change

From the public parking lot in Leonidio center, hit the highway headed east in the directions of Athens. Just before the sign indicating you're leaving Leonidio (a rectangular sign with an angled red slash mark across it), turn left onto a dirt road. Drive this road a short distance and make a hard right turn up another road. At the next left turn switchback, park on the side of the road/switchback around 37.165500, 22.870800

From the car, hike uphill up the road for 100m to well-cairned singletrack trail on the right towards the 3 windmills. Just before the end of the trees turn left at another cairn. Hike this singletrack trail as it ascends steeply past the base of the gray slab routes of Dornröschen.

If you continue past Dornröschen on the trail, it ascends an even steeper trail up into the bowl that is King of Thrones.
