UFO                                                                              (Content)

In spring 2008 the Swiss bouldering team around Urs Schönenberger visited Tinos and added some new excellent problems in sector UFO. Now we got the info for the new problems, excellently documented in a well made PDF (thanks a lot Urs!):

Sector UFO new problems [~1.1 MB]

Here the translation for the access:

Take the same path like for the sector Nefeli. There just before boulder 1 turn to the left and follow along footpathes for about 10 minutes into the valley. You will have to traverse 2 goat-pastures surrounded by stonewalls. At the end of the valley you will see a well visible goat-stable.

 

Sophia's World (new)                                                       (Content)

A completely "new" sector was developed by Steffen Kern in Spring 2008.

Steffen sent us the old PDF (which was not available any more at the old webspace) in spring 2024 again, thanks a lot Steffen!: PDF-Topo by Steffen

 

As the PDF is in German language, here the acces and most important info in English:

The parking is the same as for the Volax-sectors.

From the parking of Volax you have to follow the big field-path past the sector Livadaki and continue downhill for about 500 m. The sector is on the right hand side and continues for about 300 m. The boulders are lying on a slope, the orientation is south-west.
