The largest outdoor climbing wall in Spain

The activities are conducted by professionals from the Estepona Mountain Club - GRUME, an organization with a well-known track record in the municipality that has been training at the municipal climbing wall of El Carmen Sports Complex since 2005.

This entity, registered with the Andalusian Federation of Mountain, Climbing, and Hiking Sports, has a Climbing School which will now be expanded with more workshops and courses in these new facilities.
