The "Guide + Booklet" Concept
To keep the weight down in your climbing pack, the guide is split into two parts:
-
The Main Guide (512 pages): Purely technical climbing info and topos.
-
The Supplement (72 pages) is a dedicated booklet containing travel info, local history, climate data, infrastructure, rest-day suggestions, local cuisine, accommodation, and insights into sustainable tourism and the evolution of climbing in Leonidio.
