Covid update

[Anonymous]

Hi there!

My girlfriend and I are currently planning our climbing holidays from 1st to 13th of October. What is the situation in Kalymnos, is it possible to climb there? Are the studios/hotels and restaurants opened? And is it even allowed to fly to Greece (from Switzerland, to Kos) for climbing? I’ve read something about “non-essential travel” being possible from Bulgaria only…? What do you know?

Thanks for further information!

Cheers, Martin

About 80 % of the hotels, restaurants and tourist business are open, there are like 20 – 30 % as many climbers as normal.

We need to remain vigilant, but no talk of generalized lockdowns or anything like that. Climbers are just as welcoming as always, just they should take precautions. Indeed masks are required everywhere indoors. The staff at restaurants wear masks even outdoors.

Here it is some official info for travelers to Greece:

How are things now, thinking of coming out for a month or 2, from UK?
