In reply to UKC News:

Wow great effort by Nacho. There is plenty of cool bouldering in Asturias but it's hard to find info...even if you live here...there's loads of amazing boulders perched on the water's edge, some of which got moved in last winter's storms.
However, there's loads of great climbing too and you can find out more about that in my guide www.rocaverdeclimbing.com and if you do fancy a trip to this part of spain we have a holiday cottage too http://www.ukclimbing.com/listings/info.php?id=650&t=stay
