Riglos

On my way down to Costa Blanca I spent a few days climbing some of the easier classic in Riglos. Despite what I feared the climbing is not all 6c/7a. In fact there are some fantastic easy routes here has well.

We climbing the awesome Pena Reuba opposite the Mallos De Riglos via the amazing link up of Espolon De Gallego and Espolon Fuerte. Giving a three star bolted HVS that was 12 pitches or so long.

We also climbed a 6a+ just to the left of the impressive Fiesta Del Los Biceps, which really sucks in the atmosphere of the main face of the Visera. This route was fantastic fun and the walk off almost as imperssive as the climb as you descend past the amazing Fire Tower.

A fantastic 6b on the main riglos towers. This 8 pitch routes soaks in the atmosphere of the neighbouring Visera.

To finish our short trip off we jumped onto Moskitos, a classic ‘easy’ route on the Visera. With a stiff crux at the top over one of the areas famed bulges or Panzas. It gives you what seems like ringside seats on the Visera face and Fiesta Del Los Biceps.
