< Dalle d'Ola  |  None >

The fine east facing cliff that is clearly visible just south of the Maryvilla entrance when heading home from Calpe. The cliff is sunny, easy to get at and has lots of potential for new routes. APPROACH - Approach as for Dalle d'Ola but drive all the way to the top of the mountain, past some spectacular properties. Go along the track for 150m to a cairned path which leads to the cliff - 10 mins. The routes on the left-hand crag were put up by Jens Muenchberg and those on the right by Richard Davies.

Route (click for voting and user comments)		Symbols	Grade
1	Route 1 14m. The short left-hand line is not very good! 3 user comments		6a
2	Lion 16m. A thin vertical wall on small edges is short on bolts. Technically not too bad but a bit scary.		6c+
3	Witch 24m. The right-hand wall of the bay past tufas and holes has 'broccoli' rock at present but will improve with traffic. 1 user comment		6c+
4	Wardrobe 28m. A big pitch up the left-hand edge of the main wall. 2 user comments		6b
5	Tschook du ? 30m. A tricky start and sustained wall is good all the way. 4 user comments		6b+
6	Leo 28m. The easiest route on the wall with a gentle start. It gets a bit technical above but is never desperate. 1 user comment		6a+
7	Route 7 28m. An unknown line. 1 user comment		??
8	Entre dos tierras 24m. A poor, unbalanced route which has a desperate start and then much easier climbing above.		7a+
9	Walking the Milkyway 28m. Another hard start with an easier (6a+) wall above.		6c
10	Soft and Huggy 28m. Despite the name there are some sharp holds and well-spaced bolts. Move right to the shared lower-off. 1 user comment		6a+
11	Kuscheltiger 28m. Start as for Soft and Huggy but traverse right. The slab higher up provides the fingery crux.		7a
