Escola d'escalada de Pego
It is a small climbing school (with fewer than 30 routes) located in the ravine known as Βarranc de Les Coves. It consists of two sectors, the Sector d’Iniciació (Initiation Sector) and the Placa del Sol with about 27 routes in total. The level of difficulty ranges from IV to 6c in the Initiation Sector, where at the foot of each route one can see a plate with the name and the degree of difficulty, and between V and 7b in the Placa del Sol Sector. To access the Placa del Sol Sector, follow a path that starts at the end of the Initiation Sector for about 5 minutes, until coming across the wall.
How to get there
From Valencia: AP-7 (direction to Alicante along the coast) until the Oliva-Pego exit. Follow the national road to Pego and then continue through Passeig de Cervantes to Passeig del Calvari, and then move upwards. When getting to the point of crossing the ravine, take the first path on the left (which is indicated as Escola d’escalada, Climbing School) and follow the signs to the parking lot (in front of the Initiation Sector).
