SPORT CLIMBING CRAGS AROUND BARILOCHE
Length Trip
half day/ full day
Season
September to May
Level
Beginners, intermediate and advanced climbers.
Style
Sport climbing / bolted
If you want to climb for half or full day, we can show you several different sport climbing crags close Bariloche. Within 30 minutes radius from Bariloche, Argentina, there are several different types of rocks that are all bolted and well protected. Routes vary from 15 to 25 mts long and are graded 5+ to 8a/b and projects (5.9 to 5.13 YDS) .
We can start rock climbing in the towers of Piedras Blancas in the morning with an excellent view of Nahuel Huapi lake and the city of Bariloche. These are technical routes, mostly slaby and ideal terrain for intermediate climbers. Then, we can head to another sport climbing crag like Cerro Ventana, Morehuapi, or Laguna el Trebol to have shade for a cool afternoon.
