What new crags are on the radar these days with mid grade routes? 

I’ve been visiting the Costa for many many years and still love it🥰

Thanks

Ambolo, Escalada deportiva en Busot, Las Cerezas (Garx), Coves de Canalobre, Fonts del Algar are all 'newish' and now covered in the App. Cocentaina is also newish, but mostly tough,

Not 'new' new, but La aparecida in Orihuela (especially Las Yeseras) has recently been re-bolted adn had a few new routes placed in. Lots of routes across a variety of grades across the three sectors.

L'Atzuvia  is worth adding to the list too -  https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/adsubia-25097/#overview

Morro Falqui has a few decent single pitch offerings and some excellent mp routes.

New routes at Toix

El Rut

Just got back from 2wks in Calpe, doing 6a to 6b stuff.  Would go back to Ambolo, Garx and Busot.  We also went to Bolulla twice.  Good place to pick rosemary to add to your roast spuds.

Wouldn't go back to El Xaqueto - went there for some shade but its not very good.  Routes are 15m max, often less, some very old bolts and not many routes.  Disappointing for a 1.5hr drive.
