Costa Daurada

The Costa Daurada is the area of Catalunya to the south west of Barcelona, and offers some of the best single-pitch cragging in Spain. If you're seeking prime sport climbing for those long, dark winter days then this is definitely the place for you. It's not a place for beginners, but somewhere that intermediate and advanced climbers are guarenteed to find their next real challenge.

A variety of routes here are well bolted and you never seem to find much traffic as there are so many routes to choose from. In fact, the quantity of single and two pitch climbing may be equalled elsewhere in Spain, but the concentration of quality routes is arguably higher in the limestone mountains of Sierra de Prades than anywhere else. Costa Durada is a great place to meet and socilise with other climbers.

Weather & Climate

The climate on the Costa Daurada, as in most of Spain, is mild with hot summers, cool winters and rainfall varying greatly during the rainy months of September, October and May. The peak of the summer is often too hot to comfortably rock climb.

Accommodation

You are assured a warm welcome at our self-catering apartments, positioned within close proximity of local amenities. Climbing areas are also located within five minutes' drive from your accommodation. Alternatively, various camping options are popular with many clients who enjoy the chance to meet up with fellow climbers off the rock-face.

When to Go

The summer months are smply too hot here, so October to the end of April is the best time to come. Even though the winter months are mostly sunny, there can be rainy patches - so remember to bring waterproof layers just in case.
