Description Suggest change

This formation is North of El Toro and closer to the various places to stay. From the road you can see obvious clean lines on the formation which are the routes on the wall. This is an ideal spot to take beginners or to just get away from crowds at Mota Wall and other popular destinations with moderate lines.

Getting There Suggest change

The best way to approach is via the El Cubil driveway (same driveway as Homeros). Follow the driveway up passing the El Cubil hostel buildings to a path that leads uphill to the crag.
You can also access Buzz Rock using the same trail system for Zapatista Wall and Sendero Luminoso. From the main road just before the park entrance cross the aroyo where the “Red Point” sign is. Keep following signs heading north toward Buzz.
