Off to South America in May, heading south through the continent after arriving in Colombia. Not heading out specifically for climbing but really keen to get some done, mainly looking at bouldering but up for some sport as well.
Just wondering if any of you guys on here know any info about crags, where to go, access info, topos or just general ideas about climbing in South America.
Heard about crags in Peru around the Huarez area which sound great
and Suesca in Colombia which looks good.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Nice one!

los arenales just outside mendoza - use andes vertical for guided day trip if u like - very reasonable with exchange rate - ro has heaps of climbing - in the city and surrouds - loads of bouldering as well

Unfortunately I dont think I will be making it as far as Argentina so los arenales is off the cards sadly. what was the second place you mentioned? you said 'ro' but I didnt get where you meant, sorry if im being daft! Cheers
