Minoan library sector 1

Area Info

This sector is located on the right of the road as you see the sea (Check image below for details). You need around 10 minutes max to get there. One of the most beautiful routes of the area is located here. An excellent corner at 5c+ fully bolted as usual.

Follow the number 2 while heading down the area. You will see some blue signs on the path until you reach the routes. Number 1 shows an alternative way to reach the area (you need to make an abseil, 15 meters) but if you are heading towards to sector 1 then the best, faster and easiest way is to stick with number 2. Blue sign (P) shows the way to the parking, just a few meters above. The photo taken from the parking. It is located around 2,3km from Kapetaniana. I've post a detailed google maps on the second page of this article (just click the relevant link on the bottom of this page).
