Climbing equipment rental

Most of our equipment is coming from well known brands like Petzl, Black Diamond, Edelwiss and Mammut to name a few.
To book just contact us with the required equipment plus the dates you are interested in.

We do not deliver the equipment, you will need to pick up the gear and return it in our premises, 14km south from Heraklion and you do need to inform us in advance as we open our warehouse only by request. On some cases especially if you want to rent the equipment for several days it might worth delivering the equipment but bare in mind that this will be no less than 80€ each way in case you are staying in Chania region or eastern Crete.

Due to the driving distance in the west and some parts on south Crete, we require a minimum of 4 participants.
Individuals are welcome, but the trip will only proceed if a minimum of 4 persons register
Get in touch with us if you are less than 4 to check if we got other bookings during your stay in Crete.
The best climbing spots are in Heraklion region so if you plan your holidays around climbing be sure you will stay nearby.

FAQs

How do I pay?

We need a deposit of 20% to confirm booking and rest of the money once we meet in Crete either by cash or two days before the booked date with your credit card (we need to have the funds cleared by the starting date).
Please not that prices listed above do not include 24% VAT; this will be added during the checkout.

I don't have climbing shoes, what can I do?

Get in touch with us the soonest possible as we got limited sizes available. Climbing shoes are an extra 10€ from the advertised prices.

How is the rock and what are the grades?

All climbing routes in Crete are on limestone.
There are grades from 4a up to 8b+.
When you contact us mention what grade you can climb on sight in order to choose the best possible spot.

How long I need to get to the via ferrata?

One hour and a half more or less starting from Heraklion city. The last few km are off-road and you need to drive carefully. Be aware that the majority of the rental cars are not covered by insurance when you drive off-road in case of a faulty tire or any other issue. An alternative and hassle free way is to get one of our guides with you. That is offering free pick up so you don't need to rent a car among others. If there is any interest please read the relevant article about guided trips for via ferrata.

Can I get the gear the day before?

I'm afraid is not possible. You can get the equipment any time after 7 am and return it back any time that you wish before 10-11pm.
