Description

An impressive vertical wall of excellent quality rock at the top of the Mozarabic stairway. As a bonus, you have a magnificent view of the surrounding area! Routes are singles long pitches or two pitches of sustained and often technical climbing.

Getting There

From the main road, access by the gravel road just beside the entrance of the water fountain. Keep left at the first intersection and right at the second. It is an easy 2 km walk (or a short drive up). A bit of scrambling will bring you to an easy path that go along the crags of the area. Keep going up along the crags until you reach the stairs.
