Further south is another excellent sport climbing area at Olympos, with several crags. Here there are over 300 routes on perfect limestone rock across all grades. The rock climbing has slabs with small pockets that require technical moves and lots of balance through to tufas and huge roofs. Some of the crags also have the advantage of only being a few hundred metres from the beach. This area also has several walls that are suitable for deep water soloing (DWS) with the sea being deep enough to attempt routes from 8 to 20m long.

The new 6th edition of the Antalya rock climbing guidebook has just been published. It describes nearly 1,200 routes at Geyikbayiri, Olympos, Citdibi, Kas, and Cirali areas. All the routes are shown on full colour photo-topos, along with route length and the number of bolts.

All the routes are shown on full colour photo-topos, along with the route length and the number of bolts. The guidebook also has many excellent action photographs. Each area has a good location map, access information and a general description of the rock climbing to be found at each crag.

When the alpine rock climbing in Chamonix started to get chilly in late September we headed south to the Garda lake and Arco (Sarche Valley), where adventurous alpine climbing is combined with the comfort and treat of an Italian vacation by the lake.

From Arco, the Rock Trip Autumn 2011 went on to Finale Ligure where the focus changed to sport climbing and pushing the grades. Reaching end of October, a natural continuation was to head southeast to Kalymnos, Greece, (taking a cheap flight from Milano) to test our limits and stay on the perfect climate border (where swimming in the sea is still enjoyable and climbing in both sun and shade possible). To combine this trip with another becoming-world-famous limestone climbing destination, we continued (2 weeks later) further east by boat and bus to the hills above Antalya in Southern Turkey. Here the rock climbing season is just starting and will continue through out the winter.

The routes are long and well bolted. Tufas and colonettes make esthetical lines up the steeper orange rock and offer three-dimensional and athletic climbing. For technical and balancy climbing there are beautiful vertical lines on grey limestone with sharp crimps and pockets.

Beautiful scenery, amazing weather and fantastic routes all add up to make an ideal sun-rock venue. The climbing at the main spot of Geyikbayiri is extremely accessible - falling within a 3km square area. That means if you're staying on the campsites you can park the car and forget about driving - with less than 15 minutes walk to any sector. There are enough routes in this one area to keep you occupied for a good few weeks, but if you feel a bout of wander-lust setting in, some coastal crags might fit the bill.

Akyarlar is 25 minutes from the campsite at Geyikbayiri and is situated directly on the sea front. It is relatively small, (around 20 routes) but a nice climbing area situated in a beautiful bay. The rather steep rocky footpath down to the bay frightens most non-climbers, which means you normally have the whole bay for yourself. In summer it is the perfect place to climb, boulder, bathe and to hang out. With the first moves you are faced with boulder problems on rocks washed smooth and rounded by the sea, after that you'll find climbing on vertical walls.

So I'm travelling to Antalya, Turkey very soon, and I've heard and read that there are some really nice sport routes there, particularly in Geyikbayiri and Olympos. However, I have been climbing in gyms ever since i first started climbing. I want to take advantage of my 2-week trip to Antalya and finally get on some real rock. I will be buying a rope and 12 quickdraws from Antalya as well, since climbing gear is very hard to come across in my country. Basically my questions are:

Back in October I helped out at a rock climbing festival with TODOSK by setting up some top ropes, belaying, and teaching people how to tie in and belay. It was of course Turkish style with a break in the middle of the day for a big lunch and tea.

Since the area has developed mainly over the course of the past fifteen years, the equipment on many of the routes is new and in good condition. The active local climbing community routinely maintains and checks the condition of the equipment and the rocks.

Over the past few years that I have spent living in Istanbul, Geyikbayr has become like a home away from home and my escape from the things I dislike about living a big metropolis. As of December 4, 2014 late this last year, Departments of Energy and Natural Resources and Mining Affairs issued a mining permit that would allow irreparable damage to the most of the main sectors that lie on the specified 67 hectares of land. Should the mining for precious marble in the region proceed, the goat grazing grounds and local agriculture would be severely compromised and the local water source that feeds the surrounding villages and Antalya would also be endangered. The eco-tourism centered on rock climbing and hikers on the Lycian Trail, a huge contribution to sustaining the local economy, would also dry up. I am outraged for all these reasons as well as the multitude of other ecological and social ramifications and my emotional attachment to one of my favorite places on earth. Fortunately, there is a growing grassroots resistance among the climbing community. The petition at Change.org has at the time of writing received over 9,000 supporters in one week. Link for the petition. Visit while you can and do what you can to support the overturn of this permit. As the heart of the burgeoning sport climbing community in Turkey, the loss of this place is unimaginable.

There is printed guidebook about Geyikbayiri climbing area from ztrk Kaykc, who are working on development and maintenance of the Geyikbayiri. In this book you can find detailed and up-to-date information. By purchasing this paper guidebook, you make a great contribution to development and maintenance of the area.

One of the largest climbing areas in Turkey is located 15 kilometers from Antalya. Geyikbayr has over 1000 routes, all professionally bolted. The rural mountain area is surrounded by olive, pomegranate, and orange groves and it offers climbs for all levels.The limestone is partly sintered and provides varied climbing opportunities. The valley is divided into two main sections, a long south wall and a long north-west wall. In addition, there are smaller sections with different orientations.The rocks facing south get very hot in the summer because they are exposed to direct sunlight. The Trebenna section faces north and is preferable in the hot months because you can climb there in the shade. The routes here are more difficult because they are steep and overhanging. Climbers from grade 7 will prefer this area.

In this climbing area you will find routes on slabs with small pockets that require technical and balancing moves, to routes on tufas and huge roofs. Some of the crags are only a few hundred meters from the beach. There are also several walls in this area that are suitable for deep-water soloing (DWS), as the sea is deep enough to attempt routes from 8 to 35 meters long. These walls can be approached by boat.Read more about the ancient city of Olympos and Olympos Beach in Antalya.3. itdibiitdibi is one of the youngest climbing areas in Turkey. The rock, located at an altitude of about 1,000 meters above sea level, is 40 kilometers southeast of Antalya. Directly below the climbing rock and at the southern foot of the 2,649-meter-high Tun Mountain is the Masal Refuge, from where the climbing tours start. There are currently 56 developed routes of varying difficulty here. The mountain faces east and only gets in the sun in the morning.

The area is divided into different sections. On the right section, there is tuff on 140-meter-high rock with blue and orange stripes. The left section, on the other hand, is not so colorful. Here, you climb on ridges and rocks. In the spring, this side is often dirty due to the dripping water.The section called Maara Cave offers steep, sporty climbing routes with difficulty levels between 7a+ and 8b+. In the red rock section, the routes are vertical and often slightly overhanging, leading over a red and orange rock that looks like red marble. Even in the winter and spring it's always dry here. The difficulty levels are between 6a+ and 8a. The sector called elale, or Waterfall, is not very developed so far. You will only find easy and medium difficulty routes in the lower area.

About 15 kilometers southwest of Antalya is the Akyarlar climbing area. Here you climb on limestone rocks, there are about 20 routes with difficulty levels between 5+ and 8+.All routes are well bolted and secured. At the beginning of the routes, there are mostly very round boulder-like holds, after which the rock becomes increasingly rough and steep.

On Akyarlar Beach there is a rock with possibilities for bouldering and route climbing. Most of the entrances are very hard and slippery - you have to be careful here!Climbing Courses in AntalyaMost of the climbing courses are held in the Geyikbayr area. There are courses for beginners and advanced climbers and for people who simply want to improve their climbing technique.Bookings for a camp lasting several days usually include excursions to the surrounding area. Climbing equipment must be brought along. Missing parts can usually be purchased locally.

Teke Tepe, East Face. New route Pantera Pardus (160m, 4 pitches, grade V), by Tun Fndk and Rauf O. Pinarbasi, August 27, 2015. A very beautiful line on good limestone, with good and exposed climbing. Some loose blocks, as with any alpine rock climb. Descent by the ordinary route. be457b7860
