THE PROGRAM:

The climbing in Sicily trip combines adventure, culture, and relaxation in one unforgettable Mediterranean experience. You can climb impressive limestone walls, explore archaeological sites, and relax at the spa or on beautiful beaches. Moreover, you’ll discover the island’s wilderness and enjoy delicious Sicilian cuisine after each rock climbing in Sicily day. The following program is only indicative and can be adjusted according to your preferences and travel schedule. With flexibility and expert guidance, your Sicily climbing adventure becomes a perfect mix of sport, nature, and local culture.

If climbing on limestone by the sea is your passion, consider the alternative of scaling the stunning cliffs of Sardinia or Finale Ligure, two other world-class destinations for Mediterranean rock climbing.

Climbing in Sicily ASCENT DAY BY DAY

Meeting point: meeting at Turin or Milan airport.

From Trapani, after renting the car, we will go to the location we chose.
Transfers are always by car unless we decide to spend a few days at San Vito Camping, from where we can reach many areas on foot.

Wake up and breakfast. Transfer to Salinella, the main crag in the area of San Vito Lo Capo. An impressive number of equipped routes for every taste will await us. The beautiful view of the sea and the mild climate make it an ideal destination for winter climbing.

Wake up, breakfast and off to Custonaci and the spectacular Never Sleeping Wall crag, about a hundred metres from the cave where, during the Christmas-New Year’s Eve period, the Nativity scene is played. The special thing about this place is the multitude of pipes and concretions which are abundant on the easy climbs.

After breakfast, we will go towards the Crown of Aragon, a beautiful and scenic crag, with mostly overhanging walls rich in concretions. The climb is athletic and continuous. Light lunch and relax on the beach before moving to the crags near Palermo.

Also the area of Palermo is rich in crags including Bauso Rosso, a magnificent rocky bar 500 m long with four important sections: Inferno, Purgatorio, Paradiso and Arctica.

Another day, another crag. This time is the Roccia dello Schiavo, a spur of Monte Pellegrino that overlooks the Parco della Favorita, in the heart of Palermo. The rock is an exceptional grey limestone, often sharp, but there are also areas with cracks and hourglasses. It is an area rich in sports itineraries to suit all tastes and levels, as well as multi-pitch routes.

The last day is dedicated to visiting Palermo, while the most indefatigable ones could spend the time with the last climbs before flying back home.
