Description
This cliff is located on the western foothills of the rock of Palamidi, hence its name. The rock is solid for the most part, with variations of red and gray limestone. The routes are characterized by beautiful dynamic movements in small to large holes and at times on slabs with pads. All route anchors are open except on the “Cypress” route.
Approach
Access this cliff by following the pedestrian dirt road from the Arvanitia beach parking lot towards Karathona and the crag of "Neraki". At some point you will encounter a stone font on your left. Continue for another 50m. and you should spot a blue-marked trail starts on your left that leads directly to the "Kyparissi" sector.
Ethic
No chipping on the stones please.
History
The routes were set on the initiative of the local climbers. The first six routes were set in 2016 by Kostas Tsoukleidis and Nadine Strobl in the "Kyparissi" sector. All of them sport routes with open anchors. A little earlier, on the right part of the rock, the "Afroditi" route had been set as a trad route (there is only a fully equipped relay). In the following years, a total of 5 other routes were introduced in the "Paradosiaka" sector.
