Description

A crack climbers paradise on columnar basalt with outstanding views of Cerro Tronador. There are around 100 cracks to climb here. Most routes have 2 rap rings at the top. There is a pdf of the routes floating around, ask locals for a copy. Otherwise just show up and get on whatever looks fun. The left side has easier routes from 5.6-5.10. The Central taller columns have longer and overall harder routes from 5.10-5.12. The south side Coihual is shorter but has a variety of ratings.

Camping is located in Pampa Linda.

Getting There

Get the PDF and read the detailed instructions. Summary: Drive south of Bariloche two hours towards Pampa Linda at the base of Cerro Tronador. There is a limited time for entry and exit on the one way road. Time it wrong and you will be stuck waiting to get in or out. It's also located in a National Park that charges entry fees. Park in the designated area only. Hike the trail to the crag.

You MUST register with the park to climb there, the rangers check sometimes.
