The mythical area of Meteora in Greece is a world famous destination for both climbers and non climbers alike. Giant towers, topped with ancient monasteries stretch as far as the eye can see, defying gravity and tempting the brave to scale their intimidating walls. This place has been a dream of James Pearson and Caroline Ciavaldini for many years and finally, as they drive East towards Turkey, they have a chance to make dreams come true!

what turkey has to do with meteora?

[@documentaire_fotovertical]

manos This video is part of a series of 8 episodes, from Greece to Turkey. :)

[@nikpic2651]

This video starts....title "Turkey and trimmings"......then "Meteora"
What is your idea?....well this place is in Turkey!
Sorry, i didnt know that i should pass this misleading title and search where Meteora actually is. I should have thought that the video producer had in his mind that next, at some point, maybe in an other video, we would see something in turkey.
Great video however.

Climbing in Mythical Meteora with James Pearson and Caroline Ciavaldini ..... then Turkey and trimming . And meteora is in Greece !!! I thing is a majest mistake

Great video, you should credit the music Artist though, Josh Woodward 's song memory replaced. He's awesome to allow all his music to be used for free so people should know who made the music.

[@carlosmartinezberriatua9157]

Great video

[@PulseCodeMusic]

I went there when I was about 6 (so 17yrs before getting in to climbing) certainly puts a new perspective on it... look amazing)

[@constantinosschinas4503]

meteora is that place that despite being destroyed by the church (lots of big constructions in the past years) it manages to maintain a natural and climbing purity. In direct contrast to commercial, low ethic, full bolted climbing that Aris Theodoropoulos (more than others) enforced in Greece, most of Meteora's climbing routes are sparsely bolted and let you feel the flow of climb and features, rewarding you with aesthetics and real fullfilment.

[@geertgoemans3875]

Is that "Action Direct" at 4:22 ? Brings back great memories.

[@constantinosschinas4503]

going to a tavern with vaggelis batzios is something i miss, apart from climbing itself.

[@ladalll5606]

I mean GB says NO CHALK in Meteora.

[@ladalll5606]

the guidebook says, that climbing in Meteora is permitted only WITHOUT chalk. And thousands of climbers have respected it. Btw in easy routes shown in the film chalk really is not necessary

[@deathmetalhablo]

You mean it is permitted WITH chalk, don't you?

[@blueskies650]

the rock in video: 1:58 is that for beginner or intermediate climbers?

[@geertgoemans3875]

Intermediate, if I remember well, this was a 6b French (like 5.10+ US), but you need to get used to the rock first.
