Rock climbing sites in Crimea: Red Stone

It takes 20-25 minutes by car to the east of Yalta to reach the Red Stone climbing site. The nearest villages are Gurzuf and Krasnokamenka. Actually, the cliff is situated in Krasnokamenka. About 100 routes 5a-8c (5.9 to 5.14 according to American grades). Routes are long. It is better to have a 60 meters rope. Shops are rather well-run where one might buy things for every day use and food. There is a small street market and outdoor shop in the center of village. Many world famous climbers make here their challenge. There is a lake at the east side of this rock. And it is only 50 minutes on foot from the Black sea.
