\"Rock<\/a><\/p>\n

Stewart Green<\/a>, author of Rock Climbing Colorado<\/a> and other guides, has written a new climbing guide<\/a> to Europe called Rock Climbing Europe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Rock Climbing Europe” is an oversized, sturdily bound paperback guide that Green finished after 15 trips to Europe for research, climbing and interviews with climbers.<\/p>\n

“When I started going to Europe in the 1990s, it was difficult to find information there,” he says. “You had to translate guides from French and Italian, and all you had were hand-drawn topo maps and no photographs.”<\/p>\n

Green’s guide includes climbing routes with maps and photos in Great Britain, France, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Greece, Germany and Norway – all places, he says, that are steeped in a great climbing tradition.<\/p>\n

The result: a climbing book that is part routefinder, part travel guide and part travelogue, with tidbits about the weather (the best climbing in Belgium’s Freyr is between April and late October); cultural highlights (Gothic architecture abounds in Bolzano, Italy); and food (Provencal cooking in the south of France features olive oil and garlic).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
