Routes as sport in Montsant

8b in some guides.

8a+ in some guides.

There are half a dozen more bolted lines 5-20m R of this route, which look great.

About 50m R up the hill from Diedro.

A 70m rope is just enough to lower off the top to the re-threading anchor then, after re-threading, just enough to lower off to the ground. Tie a knot in the end!

Grading is a guess! Route is not in the guidebook.

This and the next 3 routes have a shared start at the left end of a raised ledge, above a fixed hand rope, starting with a rung/staple.

Marked with blue paint. Stick clip advisable, it’s insecure at the grade to the high-ish 1st bolt. The hangers on the top are missing. The lowering anchor is now at about 38m, perfect for a 70m rope.

Starts in the right facing corner/crack feature, before stepping out right onto the face.

Shares the first 5 or so bolts with 'Nanses del priorat'.

Starts just left of an intermittent fissure.

The next 3 routes have shade until about 10.30 AM.

First pitch 7a. The first 7 bolted at Montsant, around the year 2000 amazingly enough.

A 70m rope is just enough to lower off, but no less. This and the next 10 routes have shade until about 11.15 AM.
