I know there is plenty of climbing on Tenerife and Grand Canaria but is there anything to do on Fuerteventura like bouldering or DWS. Has anybody done anything up there? Are there any infos in the web, any guidebook recommended.
Thank you

There's some development, including some bolted routes, in a short but spectacular dry river gorge near Betancuria, which is high in the mountains in the centre of the island. I only know this due to coming across them during an abortive attempt to descend the gorge on a mountain bike. The gorge is called the Barranco de las Penitas. http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-143194372/stock-photo-central-fuerteventura... There's some bouldering potential there too IMHO.

Don't know about elsewhere on the island though.

HTH

I didn't expect a case of wine, but a thank you would have been nice.

Big thanks. Sorry. Didn't mean to be rude. If I ever meet you at some crag I will get you a drink. :-D
