Macabi

5.10d, Sport, 72 ft (22 m),  Avg: 2.6 from 22 votes
FA: 2002
International > Europe > Greece > Kalymnos > Summertime > Main

Description

Moderate climbing that leads to a thin, and I thought painful, crux at about mid-height. Climb past the painful left hold to a small pocket for the right hand to clip the crux bolt. Easier climbing to the anchors.

Location

The main wall has an upper tier and a lower tier, this route can be climbed from either. Again, look for the name painted at the start of the route.

Protection

Bolts and a typical Kalymnos lower off.

[Hide Comment] Accurate description above. Starts on a ledge which hides the first bolt until you're up there. It's vertical, crispy with 1/2 finger pads that can be sharp. Discernible crux at the 5th bolt, figure it out and don't shop for something better. Technical climbing, not for everyone. 9 bolts. Sep 11, 2017

[Hide Comment] I don't know if it's always the case but the day I dit it, the rock felt like if there was a layer of wax on it. Even when it was looking grippy my shoes were slipping. Very unpleasant and the first time in Kalymnos I tought that a route was crap. Maybe it was just me the problem?!? Jul 25, 2019
