The secret was revealed a long time ago: the younger sister of Kalymnos, the island of Telendos, is certainly well worth a visit. During recent years the new multi-pitch climbs and crags have attracted more and more climbers who, after having crossed the channel which separates the two islands, enjoy the truly particular atmosphere and climbing which this island has to offer.

In May 2012 a new crag came into being thanks above all to the Swiss climbers Markus Leippold and Urs Odermatt who developed Lambda. This hosts "more than 30 fantastic routes in magnificent surroundings."
