1-2-3 ABC 2a on Kalymnos - Easiest route in the world?

What is the easiest bolted route in the world? The 8 meters long 1-2-3 ABC in Symplegades sector on Kalymnos should be a contender for this title. You can also do the top rope variation 4-5-6 DEF 2c to the right. In fact, it is also possible to do a variation to the left which makes it 1b+ :) In the new topo, Symplegades has already been said to be the best family crag on Kalymnos and, including also the new 5b, The double twins, just confirms it. The trend for parents to bring their small kids to the crag is just growing stronger but the ground under the routes is often not so nice for running around and playing hide and seek on Kalymnos. Symplegades, however, does the trick.

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders. Outdoor bouldering isโ€ฆ
