Restricted Access

The area is a nature reserve and access to the crags on Frontales and Escalera Arabe is sensitive. You may see people driving up the track from the water tank, but it is not allowed and you could well be fined. It only adds around 15 minutes to the walk in. The whole El Navegador sector remains banned to climbing due to rare flora with the exception of the lefthand-most route. There are 2 signposts in front of the cliff and a wire fence to mark the restricted area but these have been pulled down by climbers. 

18m.

βeta: Because my mate 4 weeks prior was telling me ALL about hockey nights in Canada it seemed only right to have a go at this. Second go and actually find better beta on the fly the second attempt. Very cool route. Deserves more than a measly star. Agree with BolderHolder, the route looks different then the guide - was hard to see at first and actually nearly gave up and moved on until I saw from the left hand side the actual line.

βeta: The start didn't correlate with the line in the guide book, with the bolts a little to the left. Really great varied route.
