Climbing in El Triángulo

The Triangle is an climbing area of vertical limestone rock located in Villanueva del Rosario, where you will find both sport and traditional multipitch routes, as well as single pitch sport routes.

The average length of the wall is between 100 and 120 metres, the base of the wall is at 1380 metres above sea level. This wall has potential for self-protection routes from one to four pitches.

Regarding the opening style of the existing routes, some have been opened from below combining free climbing with aid climbing, while others have been bolted from above.
