This guidebook describes the sport climbing around the famous seaside resort of San Vito Lo Capo, near Trapani in northern Sicily. Nearly 4km of coastal cliffs have produced hundreds of quality limestone single pitch routes mainly in the easy to mid grades (half the routes are F6b+ and below), which are detailed in this guidebook. Also included is Castelluzzo crag near Macari and Custonaci crag near Scurati, which are close to San Vito lo Capo, as well as some multi-pitch climbing on Monte Monaco.
Re-published in May 2012 this guidebook is written in Italian, German and English text throughout. All the routes are illustrated on colour photo-topos with French grades.
