Description

The Poema de Roca is the tallest section of the Frontales wall and one of the most famous areas. At the base of the wall is the Poema cave, a mecca of hard, steep problems that avoid water during rain. However, due to their quality and popularity, these routes can be quite slick in the sun.

Getting There

There are two approaches to the Poema de Roca area:
1) Park in the Albercones parking and walk uphill, past Albercones and Sector Suzio (approximately 500 m) until you reach the cave.
2) From the station bar, head uphill through the village. When the road forks, take a left, and park by the water tank near the top of the hill. Follow a dirt path towards the massive wall.
