Rock Climbs In The Pyrenees

 
The best of the rock climbing in the Pyrenees is detailed in this guidebook. There are 500m routes on immaculate andesite on the Pic du Midi d'Ossau; 300m routes on hard sandstone in the canyon of Ordesa; whilst the 300m conglomerate climbs on the towers and walls of Riglsos are mind-blowing. Also delicate slab climbing on limestone at the popular Santa Elena.
