spain or greece 6-Jan-2009 At 8:57:26 AM dreamingof8a

- Spain: many areas with different styles of climbing and types of rock (conglomerate, sandstone, limestone) within driveable distance, all grades but certainly a lot in the 8b and upper up to 9a+. Some "historic" routes/areas
- Greece: Can only think of Kalymnos atm; rather one big area, probably less in the really hard range; not much flexibility in terms of different areas/types of rock.
- Both: great climbing

To me Spain seems to have more "depth"; hard to describe what I mean :-)
Maybe it's a bit like Nowra vs. Blue Mountains with Greece being Nowra? No offence, Nowra is great.
Not sure if that makes sense. Anyway you can have great fun in both countries, climbing and besides the pulling! But for one month I'd definitely go to Spain. From there even France is close if you get bored.
