Routes in Fuente Peña María

Easy climb on the far left. The start is quite polished and uncomfortable, though.

Right-hand variation of the first route that shares the same polished start

Start variant over the boulder. 6a+(?). Somebody need to confirm the grade.

Salida resbaladiza, luego pequeños pero cómodos agarres hasta arriba. Más fácil que su vecino de la derecha.

Grandes presas al principio, pero una sección media finita.

The local guidebook (see Gestalgar) falsely reports an additional route here. The name of the additional route has been added as an Alternate name here on theCrag.

Thin middle section.

Tough start, tougher middle section. Arguably, the hardest of the "easy" slab routes on the left.

Crimps and shallow pockets

Decent pockets to the top. The polish is not quite as bad as some others further left.

Enjoyable climb on good holds. Has a small crux about 2/3 up.

harder start, than easy

Essentially, this is a boulder problem to the second bolt. The anchor is only a single bolt with a ring.

This route is missing in the local guidebook (see Gestalgar). If you know name, grade or bolter, please share it.

Crimpy and technical vertical climb. Relax a bit when you reach the slab on top. You'll need some energy to conquer the bulge. The bolts feel a bit spaced.

Navigating the big pillar requires both physical and technical skill.

Shares an anchor with 'Apreta que por arriba suelta'

The easiest line of the main overhang offers jugs aplenty - but only after passing the physical start boulder.

Siguiendo la fisura pulida te entra en la crux antes del desplome.

Shares start with Fumando María and then crosses over the routes to its right.

Fully bolted. Material needed:

• 60m rope
• 16 quickdraws

It is possible to combine pitches 1+2 and 4+5.

Descent:

At the top of pitch 6, about 5 meters to the left, we find the line of rappels. Two rappels get you to ground from where you can go up a canal that leads onto the path (El PR). This path will take you back to the base of the crag.

6b oblig.

1. Shares the same approach pitch as 'No a la guerra' - which is dirty and unspectacular. You then follow a steel cable to the right where the actual route starts. Alternatively, use the approach to sector 'Asentamiento' and start with P2 directly.

2. P2 leads straight up without any real problems and reaches a belay on a big block.

3. P3 presents the crux right after the start then continues on easier terrain. Crux can be aided.

4. P4 has the hardest part as well right after the start and then continues on easy and sometimes doubtful rock.

5. P5 is the best pitch on the route and offers varied and some very exposed climbing.

6. P6 has a final crux in a groove before reaching the top of Peña María.

Enjoy the view before heading down and left (east) to reach a marked path that takes you back to the base of the crag.

Route is fully bolted.
