The big orange wall and cave in the southern part of the crag, the original El Corral, were popular areas back in the 90s and provided some hard climbing, but were subsequently banned after the bad behaviour of climbers resulting in removal of the bolts. The eastern part of the crag known as "El Corral East" or "Donde" has had some good routes added in the 2010s and the recent years (and months) and is a scenery place worth a visit. The rock is limestone, and the style is mostly technical and vertical on single and two-pitch lines.
⚠️ NOTE: ⛔️ Climing prohibited from 1 March to 30 September due to nesting birds. 🦅
There are now two sub-sectors under the "El Corral East / Donde": Upper and Lower. The lower sub-sector has some nice long single pitch lines and the multi-pitch "Three-sixty" that takes you to the top of the cliff offering a 360° view of El Chorro, hence the name. "Three-sixty" has 4+ and 6a variations and is a popular and pleasant first multi pitch experience. Both the lower and upper sectors provide for a good amount of mid-grade routes. Please note that the crag is still under development and quite a few routes are new so the grading is subjective.
☀️ The crag gets the sun from early morning. The upper section goes in shade mid afternoon while the lower one stays in the sun for longer.
