The crag of Donti (Tooth) is located at the center of the Avantas valley and is a neighbor of the right sector of Pyrgos, since it is just 50m away from it. With a southwest orientation, the crag is perfect for the cold days of winter since it is under the sun all day long. The crag is equipped with routes graded from 5a to 6b+ and a height of 16m to 18m on the area’s limestone, while the anchors are exclusively open-type.
Access
Approaching the area via EO53 from Alexandroupolis, the Pyrgos formation is visible at the back of the valley, about 1Km from the village on the right-hand side of the road. There is a parking area at its base, next to the chapel of Agios Athanasios. From the chapel we follow a steep and narrow trail marked in red, which first travels left towards the base of the tower, then continuing to the right we pass by the right sector of Pyrgos and then reach Donti. The approach does not exceed 15min.
Climbing history
The crag was equipped by A. Du, from November 2020 until January 2021 and was supported through donations by friends.
