| The highest peak in the Peleponnes - Mt Taygetus 8778' |
After the success of the autumn trip to mainland Greece we decided to do something similar only heading down into the Peleponnes rather than northwards and make the trip a little longer so we weren't under any pressure of time.
Apart from one wet and windy day that affected the whole of Greece conditions have been superb, warm days, cool nights and the fresh greens of spring everywhere. As last year the crags have been high quality with great climbs and apart from a Sunday when there were a couple of teams at Solomos we haven't seen another climber anywhere.

| Day Four or was it Five - a tough 6a at Nedousa |
The accommodation has been varied and interesting, from posh apartments to old renovated seaside cottages and, as ever, the locals are super friendly and so keen to please.

| Day One: Solomos above the olive groves |
The scenery has been stunning throughout, high snowy peaks, deep wooded valleys with tumbing streams and golden beaches stretching off into the distant blue. Plus there is the awesome sense of history stretching back at least 5000 years - in some senses this where it all began.
