CLIMBING
About 7 km from the port, at the inland of the island, the granite hill of Exomvοurgο looms. A beautiful craggy mountain with a long history, dating back to ancient times, where the inhabitants of the island had always found protection from various attacks, due to its shape that creates a natural fortress. There you can see the remains of the ancient Greek city as well as the ruins of the Venetian castle which, at its time, was the most powerful island castle in the entire Aegean Sea. At the scarp side of the hill, the climbing sport field spreads. The field is divided into 9 sectors with a total of 90 routes. The difficulty levels of the routes vary from 5b to 7b+, which means that sport climbing here is ideal for both beginners and experienced climbers. We introduce you to the lesser known and outstanding sport of Climbing, in absolute safety. We share adrenaline-filled moments, experiencing the feeling of excitement and freedom that only top-rope climbing can offer. Reaching the foot of Exomvourgo hill, the panoramic views are already rewarding. This activity can by done by anyone, regardless of their physical condition.

BOULDERING
In Tinos there’s a worldwide unique geological phenomenon which makes it an ideal destination for bouldering: huge, round, granite rocks extend in an area of about 18 km2. Several bouldering sectors are spread in that area and there are 500 bouldering problems of varying difficulty. We can provide you with all necessary equipment as well as all the information needed on bouldering sectors.

VIA FERRATA
In the Centre of Tinos below the hill of Exomvourgo we created the longest Via ferrata of the Cyclades. An easy hike with a bit of scrambling at a length of a 1000meters encircles the hill. Steep slopes, gullies and narrow passages offer a unique hiking experience, and the all-around view from above during the trek is magnificent. Read more…
