Just your climbing shoes and comfortable clothes for climbing. Food is not included (only a light snack), so you might consider bringing some water and something else to eat.

Transport is included, so you don't need to have a car. We will pick you up and drop you of at your location in Athens.
What's the best time of the year to climb in Athens?
We can climb all year round! The only obstacles may be some rainy days in winter or some extremely hot days in summer. But on the hot days we can pick a sector which provides shade, and in wet winter days if it's not possible to climb outdoors we can visit one of the 4 major climbing and boulder indoor halls.
