A wild and exciting
climb up two isolated towers situated amongst some of the most
beautiful mountain scenery on the Costa Blanca.
This route must rate as one of the best, at its
grade, in the area for mountain rock climbing. It also includes
a spectacular Tyrolean traverse. |

A superb rock
wall to climb on. The rock is very sound and protection on most
of the routes is excellent. Most routes require a full rack and
double ropes are more useful than single, although 60-70m single
ropes will be sufficient on most climbs.
You can climb here at most times of the year. Climbing in spring through
to fall is good. It gets the sun early in the morning, until
11-00 am. Descents via bolt abseils |

A series of domes, which are the actual
peaks of the rock walls of Penya Roc. Although Penya rock is best
seen from the Guadalest valley road, the pleasure Domes are best
viewed from the Sella valley as they make up the head of the valley
and face that direction. The actual rock on the routes is excellent,
most of the climbs use lower offs before this point is reached. |

A superb adventure climbing area. The
rock is mainly perfect and natural protection can be found in the
most unlikely places. The rock architecture is awesome, overhanging
most of the time but with some routes, particularly Rowland's Magical
Mystery Tour, finding their way through with surprising ease. |
