Lat / Long: 38.786007, -6.260161

요약

Escuela cercana a Mérida, con vías de grado medio y bajo sobre piedra cuarcita, bien equipadas con parabolts y seguros cercanos, con predominio de orientación SW, perfecta para otoño y primavera.

설명

La mejor época para escalar es otoño y primavera aunque en invierno hay sectores donde se puede escalar sin problemas porque da el sol todo el día (Fotosíntesis, Niebla y Chumbera). En verano si no hace excesivo calor se puede escalar en La Azotea por la mañana y en el Secreto o en el Bélico por la tarde, aunque la aproximación puede ser dura debido al calor y la distancia. Predomina la escalada sobre placas verticales con regletas, aunque existen algunas vías desplomadas, sobre fisuras, incluso algún techo, como en el sector Secreto.

접근 문제들

Está prohibido escalar en El Aparcamiento del 1 de enero al 30 de junio por ser época de nidificación de algunas especies.

접근

En la autovía A-66 tomar la salida de Alange y continuar hasta llegar al muro de la presa. Nada más cruzarlo nos encontramos con el aparcamiento a mano derecha. Para acceder a los sectores más orientales (Fotosíntesis, Chumbera, Bélico, etc.), si se prefiere, se puede dejar el coche en el pueblo, junto al comienzo de la subida al castillo, ya que el acceso es algo más corto. Desde Mérida se accede por la carretera de Alange junto al Guadiana (también con carril-bici, 20 km).

숙박 장소

Está permitido vivaquear, aunque apenas podremos encontrar sitios. En el pueblo se dispone de algunos alojamientos.

설명

The school is located on the south face of the rocky outcrops known as Puerto Roque, this being the only zone with environmental authorization to climb within the great Quartz band in which it is located.

It has a diversity of sectors with a variety of climbing styles that were equiped in different periods. The first group, with Sector Yosemite, Barrio Sésamo, Machacas, Itis and the deactivated Pitufos date back from the 90's. Those require extra attention to the material quality and state. The other group of sectors, that counts with Luis Sancho, Placa del Dragón, Pandémico, La Cavalera, Diedros and La plaquita sectors, has been equipped in 2021 and 2022.

The slab style predominates and presents a multitude of textures and shapes due to the differences in the composition of the rock, in which we can find from bands of slate to areas of high concentration of quartz.

It is a south-facing school, so it is not recommended for summer or high temperatures.

윤리문제

The crags are located on private land. We must be respectful of the environment, not leave rubbish, pick up what others may have dropped, and in general contribute to our activity being seen as a value for the area and not as a nuisance.

La escuela se encuentra en una Zona de Interés Prioritario de la Red Natura2000, por lo que hay que ser respetuoso con las restricciones.

요약

Histórica escuela que está siendo totalmente reequipada, gracias al generoso esfuerzo desinteresado de l@s escalador@s locales. Cuenta con vías de casi todos los grados.

설명

En cuanto a las vías, abundan tanto los desplomes positivos como los negativos, en ocasiones con exuberantes barriguitas de buenas manos. Debido a su orientación, se puede escalar todo el año, salvo en las mañanas estivales. En los meses centrales del invierno es posible que la humedad y el musgo dificulten bastante las ascensiones. Por favor, mantened las cancelas cerradas, pues se trata de una finca con ganado, mayormente cabras y ovejas, a las que, por supuesto, se debe respetar para asegurar la supervivencia de la escuela.
