Spain- Tenerife

Tenerife's most popular crag. Bouldery routes up to 25m in length on igneous volcanic rock, that is similar to sandstone. It is situated in a beautiful area, the crags lying alongside a dried river gorge. This gives climbing on both sides, so there is always some shade. As well as many well bolted sport routes, the area has lots of excellent bouldering.

El Rio presa is an interesting area. A dam that was built in the 1960s, then abandoned in the 1970s when they couldnt stop it leaking water through the volcanic fissures in the rock. The partly quarried faces, and even the dam wall itself now provide some excellent single pitch climbing. Make the most of it though, the local engineers are still trying to find a way to waterproof the dam floor and provide a much needed water supply.

An excellent crag on the west side of the island, with a variety of routes. Although south facing, because of its position and altitude, the crag is often cloudy in the afternoon bringing welcome shade.

A small but worthwhile crag on the north side of the island.  The crag is in a built up area close to the sea. The routes are short, steep, fingery and well bolted.
