Holidays To Spain – The Perfect Times And Sites For Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is an exciting extreme sport for adrenaline junkies. It is a sport that enables you to challenge yourself to your limits while letting you enjoy at the beauty of nature.
Whether you are a beginner or an expert climber, you would want to find excellent 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 many regions in Spain. Rock climbers enjoy their holidays to Spain because of the nation's perfect climbing conditions. Come to think of it, Spain is quickly becoming Europe's main rock climbing venue. The majority of the most well-known and established crags are near main tourist areas and coastal cities. Furthermore, new climbing areas are being discovered and established.
For example, the areas surrounding Costa Blanca typify some of the world's best rock climbing routes with their amazing limestone cliffs. There are untouched cliffs for traditional climbing, bolted routes for sport climbing, and multi-pitch routes for overnight climbs. Many of these routes are very accessible, with just a few minutes walk away from the road.
If you want to go rock climbing and at later enjoy the pristine 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 natural limestone cliffs. Just a few years ago, Mallorca has emerged as a premier venue for deep water soloing (DWS) wherein you scale a seaside cliff without the safety of a rope. If you fall, you fall safely into the water! You can literally feel your adrenalin rush with DWS. In Ibiza, the majority of the rock climbing venues are in peaceful, majestic, and isolated sea cliffs and coves.
Barcelona is known as one of the best sport climbing sites in Europe. 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 shady forest.
