Rope length and renting

[Anonymous]

I will be going soon to climb in Kalymnos. I can have a friend’s rope but it’s only 50 meters long.

Is it possible to rent ropes on the island? if not is there enough routes to climb with a 50 meters rope for a 6a-b level??

Cheers

There are some short routes of 25m but I think you would a) always be worrying whether the rope was long enough (ALWAYS TIE A KNOT AT THE END, no matter how long the rope is) and b) you’d always be thinking about the great routes you were missing. So, borrow or buy a longer rope, preferably 80m (though 70m would do for the majority of routes). I don’t think anyone rents ropes… and I wouldn’t advise it anyway as you don’t know about it usage and its history.

Thank both of you for your answers.

I spent almost two weeks in Kalymnos in August and I’m already home.
