Aladaglar Rock Climbing Guidebook

This guidebook describes all the sports climbing to be found at the Aladaglar area of the Taurus Mountains in Turkey. The two main sports climbing areas are the Cimbar Valley and the Kazikli Valley, where over 200 routes are described in this guidebook. Also included are some big wall alpine style routes on the mountains such as Demirkazik and Parmakkaya, which are up to 650m long.

The start of each sports climbing area is a location map, and a general description of the rock climbing to be found at each crag. For the longer alpine style routes these are described individually along with the best approach and where to camp. All the routes are shown, topo style on good clear photographs, with French grades, route length and the number of bolts. The guidebook also has many excellent action photographs showing the fantastic climbing in this beautiful area.
