Torre d’en Beu – You Either Climbed Today Or You Didn’t
Opening the shutters this morning we were greeted with thick clouds, persistent drizzle and a howling wind – that’s what you get for staying on top of a mountain I […]

Back to Caimari
It didn’t take too much persuasion to tempt us back to Caimari, as it probably has the best selection of long unpolished routes on the island, so we checked in […]
La Creveta – sharp holds and rusty bolts in a super seaside setting
With a strong southerly wind and temps in the mid 20s, Creveta offered shade, shelter and a stunning outlook. Unfortunately, much of the development here took place 20 years ago […]
Caimari – the best of the new developments in Mallorca?
Having left our villa in Soller we’re ensconced in a quirky hotel in the centre of the island – santori de Cura is a converted monestary at the top of […]
Valdemossa – the perfect airport day crag
A week has flown by and it’s time for the kids to head back home, so it’s Dad’s Cabs for the next couple of days. Jake and Leah are off […]
Alaro – A return match with Buf!
The towering cliffs behind the village of Alaro host some fabulous routes including a candidate for perhaps the best selection of tufas to be found anywhere. Another hour’s drive and […]
Calla Magraner
This was a trip down memory lane, as Helen and I were last here with a 8 and a 5 year old… Tash led here first route and Jake spent […]
Fraguel
What an awesome spot! High up in the mountains and tucked away up a hidden gorge, it is a wonder that it was discovered and developed. Happily it was! A […]

Sa Mollo de Felanitx
Billed as a shady crag with plenty of easy to mid grade routes, this seemed like a good spot to start Ollie off on his arrival – especially after a […]
Sa Gubia
This has to be Mallorca’s premier crag for the breadth of climbing available, from huge moderate multi pitch routes to steep test pieces, all in a fabulous setting – good […]
Port de Soller – Adventures in Blob land
Easter Sunday arrived and the Easter Bunny had managed to find his way to our villa 🙂 Before chocolate saturation could set in we headed for Port de Soller, a […]
S’Estret
Another toasty day and another search for a shady crag – this time with the added complication of needing a spread of grades to cater for Leah’s first day climbing […]
Penyal d’es Grau
Another shady crag, and handily near the road, this is a new addition in the latest Rockfax. Notably less polished than Garrafa and much less busy – just us and […]
Puig de Garrafa – Welcome to Mallorca
We hadn’t visited Mallorca for 7 (me) and 15 (Helen) years, and there has been a lot of development since, so this visit is a chance to check out some […]
