This guidebook describes the sport climbing around the famous seaside resort of San Vito Lo Capo, near Trapani in northern Sicily. Along the coast on the west side of San Vito lo Capo is a great coastal cliff nearly 4km long. This cliff has hundreds of quality limestone single-pitch sport routes that are well bolted and cover a wide range of grades, particularly from F5 to F7a. San Vito is an excellent place to go climbing in the winter months, as many of the crags face south and west. This, coupled with great connections to Trapani and Palermo airports from all over Europe, makes San Vito a great winter sun rock climbing holiday.
Close to San Vito lo Capo is Monte Monaco, where there is a mixture of bolted and trad multi-pitch routes from 150m to 400m long. All these routes are all covered in this guidebook, along with the crags at Castelluzzo near Macari and Custonaci near Scurati.
In total, 1,280 sport routes are described, plus many multi-pitch routes up to 400m long. All the routes are illustrated on colour photo-topos with French grades. Also included is the bouldering at the big cave situated directly above the main climbing area. At the start of each area, there is a good location map, information on how to get there, and a general description of the climbing. Also included are QR-codes for the GPS coordinates of the different sectors and the parking areas.
Published in October 2024 (revised 9th edition) and it includes some new sectors and 62 new routes. This edition includes new symbols for routes that have been re-bolted/bolted with duplex-steel (PLX) or titanium bolts. The guidebook is written in Italian, German, and English text throughout, and includes many excellent action photographs.
