Nastrolopitheque Climbing

The best approach trail to sectors Uzak Zurafa, Papynosaure, Shaman and Nastrolopitheque is located directly underneath the massive cave formation called Can Baba. Locate a couple rock piles next to the dirt road (kerens) that mark the trailhead and park so that other vehicles may easily pass. Cross a small stream bed that is normally dry and follow a well-worn trail that zig zags up the hillside toward the center of this huge face. When you break through the undergrowth you will be standing in front of a massive wall and at the left side of Uzak Zurafa.

To reach Nastrolopitheque hang a left on the path a few metres before arriving at Uzak Zurafa (the main cliff). Follow this path that traverses along the base of the wall for 5 minutes and you will arrive at sector Shaman. Continue another 5 minutes and you will arrive at sector Papynosaure. 5 minutes beyond that you will be at sector Nastrolopitheque. All of these climbing areas are well worth the walk and a share a view that is world class.
