Peña de Bernal's South face/town side, is closed to climbing until further notice by the state of Queretaro.
The actual suspension of climbing on Peña de Bernal:
- All routes on the South face are closed.
- The via feratta is closed for ascent or descent, including the rappel.
- The summit is closed by any route, including those from Chichid'ho side.
- You may climb the North side and routes on Campamento Chichid’ho side (although you may not summit).
- This will make climbing Filo Noroccidental impossible since it would be very difficult and dangerous to rappel the route.

Description
On the left (west) side of Pena de Bernal is a 200m high Buttress. There is potential for developing up a significant number of multipitch moderate routes with easy access. This buttress is away from the Memorial Trail thereby removing one element of danger of rockfall to passing tourists.The buttress will require some cleaning, removal of loose rock but it has a number of interesting features that should stimulate interest.
