Olympus - Mountain Climbing

Mountain Climbing in Cyprus has become an increasingly popular sport with associations and local groups ready to welcome new members to share information regarding their favorite sport, training advice and preferred routes. Social media is a very good means for interested parties to make new acquaintances and exchange/share their experiences, so enlist into one of the many groups to participate in their sporting activities, events and contests.

An increase in the number of safe and accessible climbing routes have been created in Cyprus, accommodating both experienced and inexperienced mountain climbers in order to practice their sport during the peak of the summer season as well as the coldest and wettest winter months. A huge contrast to most European resorts with dangerous winter weather conditions making them unable to offer this outdoor sport. Many are forced to create man made enclosures to compensate.
