El Salto: A Mexican Wall to be Stoked About

El Salto is one of the best rock climbing areas in Mexico with countless amazing limestone routes from easy to 5.14.

El Salto is in a small town called Cienega de Gonzalez, about two hours away from Monterrey. It’s different than Potrero Chico and Huasteca with its Spain-like tufas and big roofs. It’s a favourite location of many Canadians during the winter.

This story is about the couple Jose and Maria – both passionate climbers – and their special connection to a beautiful mountain in the eastern mountain range of Mexico.
