BOULDERING IKARIA

Nowhere in Greece exists a location with so many giant granites gathered together. In 2012, Evaggelos Kastanias took the initiative to make the most out of the rocky anaglyph of the island, creating the first bouldering parks on both the North and South side of the island, with the support of Municipality of Ikaria and two valuable climbing partners, Antonis Skevofylax and Donatos Botos. Until today, approximately 300+ boulder passages have been opened on various parts of the island. One can visit Ikaria at all seasons, since climbing parks are found scattered on mountainous, seaside, and leeward areas, ideal for climbing at all weather conditions.
