Description

This crag is located in the town of Mont-roig del Camp in Tarragona, Catalunya.

🧗‍♂️🧗‍♀️
Overall Mont-roig del Camp offers over 800 routes of red sandstone full with pockets and slopers.
With that many lines there's a lot of variety but the main attraction are the roofs and the overhangs. Most of the climbs, specially the harder ones, are physical multi-move roof climbs using the pockets.
There are a lot of begginer grades with a high variety of lowballs of all styles to start climbing. But hidden in the valley there are futuristic world-class lines reaching the 8C grade!
Family friendly area with great views, perfect to spend the day.
Some lines haven't been repeaded so be careful as some holds may broke or maybe some grades could be weird. Give your opinion in the comments!

Some super classic lines here would be:
- Mont-roig Dreaming 8C
- Tekimuking a Despertar 8C
- Energía Vital 8b
- Parasiempre 7A+
- Will'O 6B+

☀️❄️
The best season to climb in Mont-roig del Camp is winter, spring and autumn. There is always some shade in the roofs but the sun is available everywhere. With the wind and in the shade in the summer it can be bearable too.

💪
Besides all the route information, the constantly growing 27 Crags Premium topos have GPS coordinates for each boulder and offline use in the app. These guarantee you won't get lost while navigating to the right rock and that bad internet connection won't stop you browsing the topos!

This topo is mainly based on the guide Mont-roig Bloc developed by Maikel Secanella. All credit to him for the development of this paradise that now we can all enjoy. You can found more information about him in his blog http://blocantarraco.blogspot.com/ or more information about the are in https://www.madboulder.org/montroig_del_camp.
Still under development it will be updated periodically adding the last information and updating any error, don't hesitate to leave your comments!

As in all the climbing areas, behaving correctly is crucial. No littering, no climbing on wet rock, brush away all the tick marks and stay on the obvious paths. Remember that we are in private property and access can be revoked!!

History

This valley (Areny) was discovered by Maikel Secanella in a bycicle trip. When he learned to climb he came back and started developing the area. That was around 1997 starting with the Caja de Pandora roof.

Little by little the zone started to get famous and new futuristic lines were developed and visioned. With the contribution of Dani Andrada and Chevy Crespo, both with lots of FAs, this zone now has some of the hardest boulders in Catalunya.

The last guide of the zone was published as a pdf in the blog BLOCANTARRACO by Maikel in 2016. Since then some sectors have grown forgotten. I hope that by adding the content here we can diversify the climbing to all sectors.
