Cañon de la Marta

Medium difficulty level descent, inside the wonderful natural reserve of the Marta.

 

Difficulty: v4 a2 II
Period: all year round
Length: 1,5 km
Alt. Difference: 250 meters (900-650)
Rope descents: 7, higher 40 meters
Bolts: first descent - 2000
Duration: 45' approach + 2h 30' descent
Shuttle: 0 km
Equipment: 2 ropes 60 mt long, optional wetsuit

 

Access: from Turrialba reach Peyibaje (about 15 km) and then the reserve of the Marta. Honestly we wouldn't be able to find once again the right non asphalted road among the maze of tracks crossing the finca (local farm) and so the only suggest that we can give is to ask Jungla Expeditions for assistance. An off-road car is necessary.

Approach: from the parking rise along a litlle frequented path and reach, after about 40' of steep rise, the beginning of the descent; also in this case we suggest to ask Jungla Expeditions.
