The Climbing House in San Vito Lo Capo is unlike any climbing shop we’ve ever come across. So much more than a climbing shop, this is a place that owner Daniele Arena has poured heart and soul into, selflessly for the climbing community, creating a lively hub where dozens of climbers come and go, meet for a drink after a climbing day, exchange tips on routes, crags and rest day activities. As well as the superb social aspect, it’s here you can get the latest climbing gear, rent out equipment (including city & mountain bikes), hire guides, rent climbers’ apartments and much more. Check their website for details: http://www.ymcaclimbingsanvito.it/en/
The place has a brilliant vibe, is nicely designed and is run by people full of fiery Sicilian energy. If you’re climbing in the San Vito Lo Capo area, you cannot miss this place. Pop in to say hello, get a drink and pop a few notes into the fundraiser box for rebolting routes!
