A Few RoutesTwo very rainy weeks in September of 2008 (TR here). Squeezed in the following climbs inbetween bad weather fronts; got rained off from one only! Our favorite lines were probably Hypotenuse and Archimedes, but pretty much all of them were very good. A truly unique and beautiful area! Many thanks for the great SP page!

Route Climbed: .... Date Climbed: 10 November 2004The Meteora climbing area is beautifull and perfect rock's region where several of them is much higher then 250 meters. Sendstone isn't solid enough so everyone have to pay attention.

Route Climbed: so many Date Climbed: September 1983The first time which I visited Meteora was the September 1983. Ever since, I usually visit Meteora at least 3 times every year and I have climbed many routes. A great thanks to Mr. Hasse who is the pioneer.
