    More than 100 towers and about 700 climbing routes create a feeling of fulfillment to the visitor. Climbing is the only sport that supports the area financially. Surveys show that 1000 people who stay overnight are climbers.

    All climbing schools have at least one weekend included in their timetable at this peculiar field.
    Climbers main commitment for Meteora:
    “We climb on all rocks apart from the ones, where there are inhabited monasteries.”A commitment that is kept seriously by everyone.


    Equipment: I would advise you the following book-guide before visiting Meteora.
    Meteora Band II Climbing (newer routes)
    Stutte + Hasse
    ISBN 3-922066-05-4
    In Greek, German & English, this is a topo guide to the imposing area of Meteora. Detailed info on routes, gear, hours a route is in the shade & more. Edition II & III are also released.

    production: Stutte-Verlag, Postfach 144782504 Wolfratshausen, Germany (tel/fax ++49 89 3511938)

     I did not know this area of Greece, of all the monasteries you mentioned, the Monastery of Varlaam is the one that impressed me more.

     Sergey, fabulous page with outstanding photos. You were probably very lucky with the sunny weather. Interesting to see that this area of Greece isn't completely covered by the VT database.
