21. Climbing Zone Acueducto Ciutat Meridiana

The aqueduct looks great but unfortunately, it is not used for climbing anymore. There are still bolts on 2 routes (20-25 meter) but most of the bolts and the anchors are very rusty. One route could be climbed using only the wall. On the second route the holds were removed and it is not possible to climb it at all.

27. Rock Climbing in Santa Coloma de Gramenet – Collserola

There are about 4 routes for rope climbing. One is a 5, about the others I am not entirely sure, maybe 6b-7a. Not the best place to climb. We only went there due to the Covid-19 confinement.

28. Boulder Acueducto Santa Coloma de Gramenet – Collserola

29. Public (Mini) Rocodrom – Parc de les Esplugues

30. Climbing Viaducto Vallcarca – Gracia

On one side of the Viaducte de Vallcarca (or Puente de Vallcarca) you can find climbing holds and bolds. The equipment is very old. The bolds and most holds are still good but you can’t use any of the anchors. We downclimbed to clean the routes. Grades are about 4/5.

31. Sector Buena Vista Badalona

…haven’t checked it out yet.

32. Sector Les Guixeres Badalona/Montgat

It’s the perfect escape place during confinement. 7 routes from 5 to 7a. A clipstick is helpful (for route nr. 6 [6c] you’ll need it). The sector can be reached by train and is within the ‘Comarca Barcelona’. Very nice surroundings and views at the sea.

33. Boulder Wall Maquinista

This is a small new (2021) boulder wall just beside the street. It’s perfect for beginners to try out.
