Description

The prominent grey tower behind Raúl’s Farm with very popular 2-pitch routes. As the name says, the rock is sharp but the views are great. You may hike down on the back from the top if you want to avoid “rope issues” on sharp rock when rappelling.

Approach

Follow the approach for the northern sectors. Pass through Raúl’s Farm and follow the trail straight towards the cliffs. Climb over the fence and take a left following the good trail. Climb over another fence and hike up as if going to the Ensenada de Raúl. You will see the cliff on your right while hiking up. Reach the base by hiking to the right.

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.
