La zona de escalada oficial en VGR. Solo atornillaron la parte menos adecuada a la mitad de la altura. La parte izquierda haría mejores rutas más largas.
The official climbing area in VGR. They only bolted the least best right part to half height. The left part would make better longer routes.
approach
Desde El Guro, tome la ruta de senderismo hasta la cascada de Barrance de Arure (agradable caminata). 120 m después de la última casa, antes del gran acantilado directamente en el camino, se cruza un pequeño valle y ya se ve el anfiteatro a la izquierda. Encuentre su camino allí (mejor en el fondo del valle).
From El Guro take the hiking path to the waterfall in Barrance de Arure (nice hike). 120m after the last house, before the big cliff directly at the path, you cross a small valley and already see the amphitheatre up on the left. Find your way up there (best at the valley bottom).
history
