Other things to do
« on: January 30, 2009, 04:55:11 pm »

I expect Tracy will already have reams of suggestions for cultural and historical stuff to see.

So here's a thread for other non-climbing bits and pieces.

I've got a copy of this book
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Canyoning-Classic-Canyons-France-Cicerone/dp/1852845082
which includes no fewer than 5 different routes around Cala Gonone, from easy bimble to minor expedition.

Anything else?

You could try scuba diving!!!!

I am seriously tempted to sneak off for just a single day diving on my 'rest day'

Sorry not had time for the cultural stuff - too busy moving to Cambridge (tomorrow that happens) But will certainly look something up.... any via ferrata there?

One of the canyon routes mentions an optional via ferrata finish.  But goes on to say that the author failed to find it!
