New Years Eve at Albarracin
24.01.2017
I first visited Albarracín back in 2004, when the rumors of a new bouldering meca near Teruel was emerging. The place was absolutely amazing and the soft red sandstone got me hooked! So I end up driving the 900km from Lisbon, again and again in many crazy boulder trips that follow…
As life goes on, I realized that I haven’t been there for nearly 7 years, so when my friend David told me they were going to Albarra for new years eve, it sounded like a good plan!
And what can I say… the magic still lives there!! 🙂
View from Mirador de la Escombrera.
The red sandstone of Pinares de Rodeno.
This one can go anywhere and maybe even climb some boulders!
Meeting old friends on the rocks! Dani doing a powerful 7b in Arrastradero.
Filipe Carvalho trying “La Fuente”, on La Fuente sector .
An Italian climber was able to stick to this tough 7c.
Rita working out the moves of a nice arete in sector Parking.
A girl on the test-piece “Zarzamora” sit!
Gimenez on the same problem!
Vibes from inside the bungalow with the crew!
David and Gimenez playing a Vicente’s game in a way that adults enjoy!
And we call it JengaSaurus!
The limit is your imagination and self-control… 😀
The labyrinthique roads of Albarracin are stunning.
Remains of the fortress that surrounds the village!
Casa de la Julianeta is one of the most emblematic houses of Albarracín.
A medieval village like no other.
Parroquia de Santa María y Santiago.
The walls made out of sandstone are beautiful.
From the fortress top there’s a great view of the village. Well worth the hike!
More architectonic details that delight me.
New Year’s Eve! By by 2016…
Party @ bungalows 12! 😀
Time to blast some fireworks.
While the crowd freezes…
Could be – 6ºC, -8ºC… who knows! Brrrrrr
