The german climber Solveig Korherr has done ‚Zor‘ 8c in the Turkish climbing crag Datça. The 22-year-old German has been in Turkey for over two months now and there is no fixed end date yet.

Solveig comments on his Insta: „I‘m feeling so grateful to be here in Datça at the moment. Living next to the sea and having this huge cave around the corner is amazing!
.
After getting used to this steep and powerful climbing in the cave in the first few weeks, I found myself a perfect challenge with „Zor“. The first pitch is a very bouldery and steep 8b+ (pic 1) followed by endurance climbing in the extension (pic 2). The lower boulder section didn’t really fit me, but I’m glad I persevered over many days despite wet holds and seepage to find the beta that worked for me!
After finally sticking the big move from the ground that I kept on falling (pic 1), I luckily fought my way through the cave to the anchor! What a big journey!“
