Summary

A great little climbing area just outside of the town of Boquete with a few sectors. The main sector is just next to the road and because of its amazing structures also a tourist attraction.

Description

Amazing volcanic rock. The basalt columns are mostly horizontal, offering great structures or slopery holds. The main sector is literally next to the road and has a great flat grassy area to belay and a river on the other side of the road to cool down after climbing.

Approach

Drive out of Boquete in direction north west on the famous loop road. Take the right way around, just before you cross the river you will see the main sector on your left. For the other sectors see there.

Where to stay

There are plenty of hostels in the town of Boquete, but no camping in the area.

History

History timeline chart

This crag was developed in 2003-2004 and has been enhanced in the years since. It was bolted by a small group of climbers led by one Gary Henning. Since then, the climbing has been maintained by Cesar Melendez, Christian Shreiffer, Dylan Moen Henning, and other local climbers who frequent the crag.
