Spent a week Rock Climbing in the area behind Villanueva del Rosario on El Corral, Los Pinos and Taco del Madera with a couple of climbs on Villanueva del Cauche.
Weather was great and quite warm, some Trad climbing, but also first introduction to Sport Climbing which I really enjoyed, it was good fun.
Excellent instruction and guidance by "The Rock Climbing Company", it offers adventurous mountain activities in Snowdonia and Spain. The company and courses are run by climbing instructor Silvia Fitzpatrick and they are supported by Simon Marsh.
