The original book for the San Vito areas!
We work closely together with the main developers of the area and therefore are always extremely up-to-date. The authors have developed many of the a bit harder routes themselves, so a pretty large amount of the selling goes back into bolting material for the area!
The research is effective December 2019 and therefore the "Sicily-Rock" is pretty sure the most up-to-date book to the San Vito areas available on the market.
The area San Vito lo Capo in the north-west of Sicily is one of the best European climbing destinations for the cooler season! Many routes can be reached on foot from the camping and Monte Monaco even offers multi-pitch climbs up to a length of 400 m.
The moderate climate, the situation close to the sea, cheap flights, the infrastructure of San Vito (beach, supermarkets, restaurants, hotels,...) and the very well protected and really excellent routes (also in the moderate grades) make this area to a real top-spot of European climbing.
- Comfortable temperatures also in winter (many south/west facing sectors)
- Close vicinity to the beach, the area lies directly at the sea
- Very short approach times: Almost all crags can be reached in 1-5 minutes.
- The campsite El Bahira lies directly at the coast and below the biggest cliff. The first sectors are only a few steps from the campsite area.
- Excellent connections and cheap flights to Birgi-Trapani or Palermo from all over Europe
- +109 new routes (compared to the 6th edition)
- ~1200 sport climbing routes
- Numerous multi-pitch routes up to 400 m, including most of the new routes which have been done in the last years
