7th Kalymnos topo with 3 400 routes

Climb Kalymnos has presented a great retrospective of the seven guidebooks that has been published since the first in 2000 with just 200 routes. The 7th edition includes 3 400 routes which is 700 more than the in the 6th edition. Buy it for Euro 45 including a free digital code. "A big part of the proceeds goes back into maintenance and new routing. Since 2015, the topo is also available through the Vertical-Life App. "If you don’t want the print version of the guidebook, the app is also available as a separate purchase. If you are a first-time app buyer it costs €18; if you have already bought the 2015/16 print edition and downloaded that app version, you can download just the updates for €9." “It’s funny to say, but it [the Kalymnos guidebook] may seriously be the best guidebook in the world. Thank you for all the hard work in new routing and maintenance!” – Alex Honnold
