Routes as sport in Central America

Features a straight line through stalactite like rock. After the terasse (midway) the terrain changes to slightly sharp rock. Two tophooks, no further bolting. The route is dedicated to Jos Schilt who died in 1996 at the age of 22.

Lower level technical with small sharp grips. Upper level comparable to Voor Jos. Tophooks, no further bolting.

Start by following the crack, then straight up. First route to be climbed on the lead in this area. Typical route for this sector. Osdorp is a suburban area of Amsterdam.

De route gaat eerst recht omhoog ,daarna een naar rechts door het grote gat en dan de uitklim recht omhoog. In het gat zit een bijennest!

Start to the far right near the crack. Follow the hooks and cross to the right when you reach the big hole. Runout is through the gully. Slightly overhanging terrain. The keypassage is above the hole.

Discontinued route.

Loopt omhoog door mooi terrein waarna een dak volgt met paar harde passen.

Features a straight line through a large roof. The runout is to the right of Warawara Dream. When fully equipped there is a considerable ropefriction.

Naar boven via de colonettes en dan traverse naar links onder het grote dak door. UItklim om de hoek, links van uitklim Warawara Dream.

Follow the line through the "stalactites" and traverse to the left while following the hooks. Not suitable for toproping. The bolts on top are shared with "May the force be with you". When climbed on the lead there is a considerable ropefriction on top. Watch the runout, which is straight up from the last hook!

Grapefield klassieker, fraaie lijn met gaten en colonettes. Markeert de grens tussen linker en rechter deel sector.

A classic, which features overhanging terrain with good grips. Follow the "tears" and the bolts. As they say in Dutch: the venom is in the tail! The bolts on top are not easy to reach when climbing on the lead. Toproping is possible, but the edge is very sharp, which makes it an obstacle of some weight.

As the mysterious Gino has left an obvious mark, the route is named after him. Tophooks.

Volg de haken, eerst schuin naar linksboven, dan korte travers naar rechts en dan weer schuin naar linksboven. Uitklim rechtsboven.

Features a line to the left. Follow the different "balconies". The runout is slightly to the right.

Klassieker, alle typen rots van Grapefield in één route te vinden. De lijn is gewoon recht naar boven.

Straight line which features all terrain types of the rocks of Grapefield. Two bolts on top.

In begin licht overhangend en daarna even rustig en dan scherpe, relatief grote grepen recht omhoog.

Wederom lichte route.

Zeer scherpe rots. Pijn is fijn??

Karakter rots als Absurdismo

Scherp, mooi scheur die je kan volgen.

Resistance on good holds. Highly recommended.

Starting left a bit higher up on the block.

Resistance on mostly good holds. Highly recommended.

Shares the same bolts as "LNFS" but uses the arete for the entire duration of the route. There used to be a lower reunion, the grade up to this point was 5.9. Now the reunion is higher and requires a technical crux move, increasing the grade.

Nice near-vertical face. Grading doesn't allow use of the crack on the right.

hard crux on small holds moving right after the third bolt. Easy after the ledge

Climbs up the steep face just left of the corner on great pockets. Shares first bolt with Pikín.

This route climbs the corner with nice laybacking up to the right wall. Shares first bolt with Ana Banana.

Route on the left-side of the cliff. Has a lower (though still high) first bolt than the others. Climb up and onto the base of a palm tree, then up the semi-circle rain groove (dihedral) above to anchors.

Middle climb on the cliff -- climbs up to the right-most of the two rain grooves at the top of the cliff. Really high first bolt -- but can "borrow" the first bolt or two from "Mojaita" to reduce the run-out.

Face climbing on the right-side; starts easy and finishes steeper.

Climb the vegetated groove up the left-side of the main face.

Be careful if lowering-off with a 60m rope, as it is a rope-stretcher.

Climb the bolt line up the middle of the face, initially trending leftwards. Gets sharp in the final 1/3.

The bolt line up the right side of the face -- steep and sustained for the grade.

Climb the arete along the left side of the cliff.

This route is about 10m right of "Cucarachón".

Not really sure where this climb is....

This climb is in the jungle, about 30m left of "Torre Blanca". Be prepared to have to pull down the occasional thorn-vine if you climb this.

The 2009 guide-book grades it "4+", but it is noticeably harder than this -- comparable to the harder 5+ routes in the Ensenada.

Climb the light grey pillar on the left of the cliff. The route finishes behind the top of the pillar, but one bolt was missing from the anchor – if still the case, rap off another route’s anchor on the left side of the pillar.

A classic for its grade.

The right variant of the second pitch of Filo de Cuchilla.

Start left of the block and follow the tufa line up to an anchor just right of the big stalactite. Great steep climbing on mostly good holds and a cool move over to the final tufa, one of the best lines in Viñales.

This is The Wasp Factory with its extension.

This is Esplendidos with its extension.

The left variant for the second pitch.

Starts left of the tunnel entrance and right of the next alcove, left of the tree. Big tufas and stalactites lead the way to the top ledge. Shares anchor with Chao Pescao. Great warm-up.

(While it may not sound like a lot of bolts, they are where you need them and the falls are generally pretty clean. So a reasonable climb even if this is the opposite of a warm-up.)

This route climbs the left edge of the tunnel entrance.

• Pitch 1: Stay left after bolt 2 and pass right behind the tree on the ledge to an anchor left behind the big stalactite.
• Pitch 2: Move right behind the stalactite on the ledge to another anchor.
• Pitch 3: Trends slightly left from the anchor.

Lower down from the top to the stairs. Easier to clean pitch 1 in top rope.

Same start as Puro Cubano but head right after bolt 2.

This is a second pitch of Cubanitos en la Red leaving the anchor towards the left.

This is a second pitch of Cubanitos en la Red leaving the anchor towards the right.
