Climbing the Via Cordata Las Maguadas is an unforgettable adventure that truly sets itself apart from a traditional via ferrata. Graded C, it offers a fantastic blend of scrambling, short abseils, and thrilling rope traverses, often leading through fascinating natural tunnels and caves. It's less about vertical climbing and more about intricate movement through the landscape.
While not overly technical, its Grade C rating suggests a good level of physical fitness and comfort with heights are beneficial. It's very accessible for active individuals, even those without extensive climbing experience, provided they have the necessary equipment (harness, helmet, descender) and ideally go with a guide or experienced leader. The unique subterranean sections, combined with the exposed traverses offering stunning views, make for a truly diverse and exciting outing. It's an excellent choice for a group seeking adventure and a break from the ordinary. Highly recommended for a memorable day out in nature, combining exploration with active enjoyment.
