Cauca Rock Climbing

The Cauca department is located on the southwestern corner of Colombia. Most of its territory is on the Andean mountains, though it extends to the Pacific coast to the West, and a tiny portion of the Amazon Basin on the SouthEastern tip.
The Colombian Massif, is a mountainous group covering Cauca, Nariño and Huila departments. The Colombian Massif is a strategic national and international level, given its significance for water production, biodiversity and ecosystems. It is also an area with a huge potential for crag development, mostly on igneous and sedimentary rock associated to volcanic activities (Sotará, Puracé, Coconucos Volcanic Range, to name a few). The dramatic landscape of the Caucan Andes is characterized by deep, steep canyons, and tall waterfalls, and small villages.
