CLIMB 365 DAYS A YEAR:
How to climb 365 days a year in perfect weather conditions? Just come to climb on the superb and compact limestone of the Cape of Leuca. Over 100 climbing routes with sectors in continuous development thanks to the Salentoverticale team that for years is been committed to improving the crags of the lower area of Salento. Thanks to the nailing and riveting work that Salentoverticale is conducting, it is now possible to climb on a range of difficulty that goes from the 4C of the Upper Wall area of the Ciolo Canyon to the 8A of the Mannuta cave with roads spiked by the climbing crew of the Ragni di Lecco. Climbing spots of rare beauty with very brief approaches, sectors with stunning lines of 35 meters on reeds and holes. Local climbers, always present at the crag, are always available for any information.
At the base of the Canyon, 4 minutes from the cliff, in the gorgeous bay of the Ciolo you can plunge in crystal clear waters after a day of climbing.
