Porto Cristo

Mallorca\'s Cova del Diablo is a masterpiece of architecture, an eye-catching monument to what is achievable in the fantastical world of DWS. It is possibly the best-formed slice of DWS rock yet found on the planet: a huge, streaked amphitheatre of pocketed limestone, poised above a deep sea of green. It\'s quite breathtaking, especially on first acquaintance. Of course nothing\'s that perfect and Diablo has its fair share of snags, just like any crag. It\'s a little too high and the water exits can be tricky, especially when the sea is rough. The routes themselves offer a profusion of pockets and buckets, the angle generally dictates the grade, as the holds are almost always huge! Also of note is the fact that nearly all of the routes here have a crux at less than two-thirds height.A popular first big route is the The Lobster (6c+) up the left-hand side of the main wall. Next up is the might of Superwoman (7a+) which takes in all the cove has to offer - long, technical and with some wild moves. Once you bag this one everything seems to go up a gear. You may want to try the delights of Afroman (7b) or, for the stronger climbers, something like Loskot and Two Smoking Barrels (8a+) with its incredible dynamic move, or the powerful and very-long-named If You Keep Your Face in the Sunshine, You Will Not See the Shadow (8b). There is no doubt that you will find something here that will motivate you to a return, or just possibly scare you away forever!
