Holidays To Spain – Why Not Try Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is an exciting extreme sport for those who love adventure. It is a sport that allows you to challenge yourself to your limits you marvel at the beauty of nature.
Whether you are an amateur or an experienced climber, you would want to find great limestone or granite cliffs to climb. You would want to climb in ideal weather conditions that are neither too hot nor too cold. You can find the ideal conditions to climb in various regions in Spain. Rock climbers enjoy their holidays to Spain due to the nation’s ideal climbing conditions. Come to think of it, Spain is quickly becoming Europe’s hottest rock climbing venue. The majority of the most well-known and established crags are just a stone’s throw away from main tourist areas and coastal cities. What’s more, new climbing areas are being discovered and established.
For instance, the areas surrounding Costa Blanca exemplify some of the world’s best rock climbing routes with their amazing limestone cliffs. There are untouched cliffs for traditional climbing, bolted crags for sport climbing, and multi-pitch routes for overnight climbs. Most of these routes are very accessible, with just a few minutes walk away from the highway.
If you want to go rock climbing and at the same time enjoy the nearby beaches during your holidays to Spain, head out to the resort islands of Tenerife, Gran Canary, Costa Adeje Gran Hotel, Ibiza, and Mallorca. They are some of Europe’s most widely known rock climbing venues featuring single to double-pitch routes on untouched limestone rocks. Just a few years ago, Mallorca has emerged as a premier venue for deep water soloing (DWS) wherein you scale a seaside cliff without using rope. If you fall, you fall safely into the water! You can actually feel your adrenalin rush with DWS. In Ibiza, many of the rock climbing areas are in peaceful, majestic, and isolated sea cliffs and coves.
Barcelona is recognized as one of the finest sport climbing sites in the continent. You can try your skill in conquering the Sierra de Prades, the rock towers of Montserrat, limestone cliffs near Lleida, or mountain granite of the Cavallers.
If you prefer bouldering (climbing huge boulders instead of cliffs), visit Albarracin where you can scramble up huge ancient sandstone blocks within a cool forest.
