Climbing in Malta and Gozo
The Maltese Islands have grown into a respected sports climbing destination easily reached from most large European cities. With 1,000+ fully bolted routes, short approaches, and a mild climate, they offer year-round climbing across various styles and grades.
Sport Climbing in Malta & Gozo is the long-awaited second edition, updating climbers on all the major developments since 2013. Many featured routes are new, especially in Gozo, where renowned climber Stevie Haston has pioneered extensive development.
While Malta lacks mountains, its rugged sea-cliffs, inland ridges and caves provide high-quality climbing on perfect limestone in spectacular settings. The well-equipped sea-cliffs are a particular highlight, offering accessible routes with an adventurous feel. The hardest route comes in at 8c+ but there are even tougher projects awaiting those willing to give them a go.
For those seeking a slightly off the beaten path sport climbing venue with seaside cliffs, great weather and a rich history, Malta and Gozo are well worth a visit.
