Suesca

A beautiful and highly accessible sandstone crag only an hour north of Bogota. Lots of traditional climbing, a lot of mixed routes, and a few sport climbs. The sport climbs are generally poorly protected by modern standards and would likely feel better with a couple of pieces of gear. More often than not, without gear, a climber will be repetitively exposed to ground fall potential on a single sport climb. The sandstone is very hard and slick and cams can blow easily – the locals recommend hiring a guide for at least a day to out of towners to get the lay of the land. An old spanish guidebook is also available at the gear shop at the trailhead on weekends.
