Description
Let me guide you through the unknown climbing spots of Athens. On this custom-made trip just for you, we’ll explore more than 40 crags around the Attika region. Join me for one or more days!
Athens’ main attraction is the Acropolis, but once you discover all these hidden climbing routes, you’ll realize that there’s more than meets the eye in this historic city. Whether you are a climbing expert or a beginner, there’s plenty of options for you in the area or in the nearby Parnitha mountain. For beginners, I’ll give you an introductory course with the basics of rock climbing. For experts, I’ll show you the best routes and give you tips to improve your skills.
One of the best features of the area is that the weather is perfect year round. If we do encounter some rain or cold climate, I can take you to some of the best indoor climbing and bouldering gyms in the city. I can also take you to some top rope climbing. Besides, Athens is full of sightseeing options, so don’t be afraid to book extra days in the city.
So send your request and follow me for one or more days exploring this incredible city.

Best day of climbing. Very skillful guide who did everything is his power to give us the best day we could, and he succeeded with flying colors. It was really hot the day we were going to climb, Dimitris found us a spot in the shade for a full day of climbing. Afterwards went for a beer and a bite town.

Very friendly, had a great laugh. First experience of outdoor climbing and it was amazing! If we weren\'t so tired due to the heat, Dimitris would have had us climbing a lot more!

Dimitris was a fantastic guide and climbing partner. His communication was excellent, even months in advance. Our day of climbing was truly a full day, so make sure to pack a lunch and snacks! Dimitris took us to an amazing, secluded spot and catered to our climbing skill and style. He is an excellent climber and was also willing to give us some pointers on how to improve. I would highly recommend Dimitris and would love to climb with him again in the future. Definitely a must for a trip to Athens (or surrounding area)!

I Odd Arne Haukeland was climbing with dimitris Sotirakis in Athen last week. I was verry happy about the way he has run this tour for my. He was professoonal with the safety, precise at pick up, a good guide, friendly, fast with responding any question I had on email, and service minded. So I will give him my best recommendation.
