    Mountaineering

    Il-Latnija or Mellieħa Cave (sometimes simply THE Cave) is a sinkhole at the northwest end of the island that offers some of the most difficult climbing routes on the island. An El Dorado for overhang fans. Safety devices were checked and renewed in 2017 and last for 50 years. Climbing in the shade is very pleasant.
