Then, between March and June, the weather becomes harder and the conditions of climbing are not adecuates. The next to months, july and Agust, the weather conditions changes a lot, so you may also have sunny days but the rain and the snow can appear any time. Finally, September, October and November are not recomended to go climbing.
