Malia: Sector 1

You will be able to make the most of this sector if you are happy on 6a. Below that level you wont be able to do much, maybe try one-two routes but don't expect many things. Malia is quiet close to Heraklion, you will need just 30-40 minutes to get there. During summer it's possible to climb even during the hot days due to been in the shadow.

The first sector is located on the left side of the face as showing in the topo below.
