Sardinia?

I have the 2010-2011 version of the linked guide. It is in 3 languages, including English. The link announces a new 2025 edition. I got guidebook in town, at the climbing shop when I visited. I don't know if the shop is still there. It worked fine for all the coastal crags in Cala Gonone. I only climbed there, so I did not investigate guides to other areas. Hope that helps.

Thanks Jay! Any idea the name of the shop? Saw a lot of “outdoor” shops but not sure if there’s any climbing specific stores where I’d have a higher likelihood of finding a guidebook

Hi Micaela, It was probably Stile Alpino, Via della Pineta, 2, 08022 Cala Gonone NU, Italy. I think they have another store in another town. But their web address is: http://www.stilealpino.net/

Cala Gonone is a very small town, you can walk around and find everything you need pretty easily. You can rent speed boats to go to the beach crags, or there is a shuttle boat that stops at all the beaches every hour or two. It is very fun, all limestone sport. The pinnacle route (on first page of this discussion) could use some gear, as it is an old route.

Amazing! Much appreciated, thank you! Looking forward to it :)

• The hike out to the spire (the Aguglia?) is no big deal if you don’t want to get a boat. It’s a short drive to the trailhead from Cala Gonone.  It’s a pretty hike. Also, the route we climbed on the spire was fully bolted. Beautiful area.

Dirtbag climbing shop in Ulassai for guidebooks and beta.   I’ll be arriving Thursday for two weeks.  Very psyched.  

Thanks Bruce! Maybe we’ll run into you; we are likely heading out that way early next weeks. Looks maybe a little rainy though :\

Anyone lugging a rack out there to climb at Capo Pecora? Worth it or no? Looks like a pretty wild and awesome set of features.

Capo Pecora is 100% worth it if the weather is good. It’s kind of a long drive but the climbing is amazing and totally unique. 

Thanks Chris! Will keep an eye on the weather but sounds like I better plan on bringing the rack :):)
