Minoan library sector 8

Area Info

This sector is located on the right side of the photo below. Three routes exist on the first part of it but hard enough to worth a visit.Walk around 150 meters further on the right and you will see the routes 4-5 as described below. The last two routes have longer approach. Just walk down to the bottom of the gorge and then walk for 2-3 minutes with East direction and you'll see a small rock with a tree on the left of it and of course bolts!
