Description

This is the most developed sector on the Vega de Pelón side of Mogote del Valle. It is well shaded from late morning on and offers excellent climbing on pockets, tufas and some sharp rock.

Approach

Follow the approach for Cueva Cabeza de la Vaca and pass the tunnel (it is short and can be done without light). Hike down the obvious trail on the other side. Once you reach the field, look for a trail that leads up left to the obvious cliff.

Ethic inherited from Cuba

Climbing gear is extremely hard to impossible to get in Cuba. Please bring gear you can spare, bolts, ropes, anything of good quality and leave it with the Cuban climbing community.
