This fine area, to the west of the main cliff, gives a reason for climbers operating in the 6s and 7s to visit Marín. There is some steep, pumpy rock and interesting tufa features. Guidebook page 90.

Aventuras en pañales The easy rib and mildly steeper rock above is very kindly bolted, and gives an easy introduction to sport climbing. 2 user comments | 1 Stars | 3+ |

Novatos con gato Take the slab then steeper rock to a pull left into the base of the heart-shaped bit of rock. The groove on the right is tricky... 1 user comment | 1 Stars | 5+ |

Si te dicen que cai Climb the right-hand side of the rib throughout. The crux is the chipped upper section leading to a short final slab. 3 user comments | 1 Stars Crimpy | 6b |

Descoco Tensión The left-hand wall of the cave leads right, then steeply back left to reach the capping roofs. Finish powerfully through these.... 4 user comments | 3 Stars Strong | 6b |

El vuelo del murciélago The crack in the right-hand rib of the cave to a tricky to clip lower-off above the first roof. 7 user comments | 2 Stars | 6a |

El vuelo extension Pressing on doesn't add as much to the climb as you might expect, with a vicious pull on a sharp hold to spoil your day. | Crimpy | 6c+ |

Techitos Free The orange rib is hard if done direct, then easier ground leads to the capping overhang which is soon over. 1 user comment | 1 Stars Technical | 6b+ |

Un lugar llamado libertad The big tufa-encrusted roof is the toughest here. The lower wall is easy enough, but the roof is not. | 1 Stars Technical Strong | 7b+ |
11 |
Alegato final The right-hand side of the big roof is approached up the lower-wall via a bolt line that splits at 8m. Dirty and unpopular. 2 user comments | 1 Stars Technical | 7b+ |
12 |
El vuela de abuelo Take the right-hand branch then haul part way through the juggy roof by a big pull. The lower-off is hard to clip. 3 user comments | 2 Stars Strong | 6b |

Mi última palabra ... and directly up the right-hand grey streak. | Technical Crimpy | 6b+ |

Piluce quete desnucas The steep wall is climbed slightly rightwards, passing a useful tree in a hole - just grab it. | 1 Stars Pumpy | 6a+ |

Paranoik Start by a spiky bush in a hole and climb the rib trending rightwards to a nice pumpy final section up the leaning tufa wall. 2 user comments | 2 Stars Pumpy | 6a |

Decoración inminente The steep wall from the left-hand side of the bay has a hard start on drilled holds. The upper section is better. | 1 Stars Crimpy | 6b |
19 |
Hueco Roja The central line from the bay is precarious then strenuous to enter and leave the red niche. | 1 Stars Technical | 6b |
20 |
Un diá sin Alain The right-hand line out of the bay is pleasant enough with sustained climbing on sharp rock. | 1 Stars Crimpy | 6a+ |

D-2 Mágicos The brown crack is harder than it looks. The crux is where the crack ends but it keeps coming after that. 2 user comments | 2 Stars Technical | 6b |

Miedo me da The short wall on the right of the brown crack is a bit easier than its near neighbour. 1 user comment | 1 Stars Technical Crimpy | 6b |
