The Field Trip

Climb through Greece, from mountain to sea

The Greek Traverse begins in the sandstone conglomerate towers of Meteora and ends in the limestone walls and fishing harbors of Leonidio. In between: mountain villages, fishing boats, shared tables, and some of the most distinct climbing terrain in Europe.

This is an 8 day trip built around a simple idea — that the best way to know a place is to move through it slowly, work in it daily, and eat with the people who live there.

The Route
