A series of slabby walls giving excellent climbing.
Sector Placa Jumilla on the extreme left of the crags has some exceptional single pitch sports climbs up to 30m
The central sector has routes of up to 4 pitches.
The other main sports area is sector La Barrera which is located on the extreme right of the cliffs
Coming from Murcia take first slip road into Jumilla. At 1k turn right at ist roundabout (Aldi Supermarket). At second roundabout go left. At 3rd roundabout which has a large spherical metal sculpture on it, turn right and almost immediately take a left on to a dirt track. Follow this, passing a blue coloured house on the right, aiming for a low ridge which is obvious to the right of the main cliff. Just before you reach the ridge take a left which leads to parking in an old quarry. If you have a small hire car it might be advisable to park just before the quarry.
As of February 2024, a sign at the TH indicates that climbing is prohibited here from December 1st to July 15. It is not 100% clear whether this restriction includes sector Placa Jumilla... ericandlucie - 10/Feb/24 |
