Description

A pretty steep cave that stays dry in the rain. Perfect for those operating in the upper grades. Gets in shade around 1 pm, contrary to what the Rockfax guidebook claims. Most overhanging routes are already equipped with permadraws, so you might need to hang only the first one or two. Topos also available on - [valenciaclimb.com](https://www.valenciaclimb.com/climbing-areas/gandia/bovedon/) - [enlavertical.com](https://www.enlavertical.com/escuelas/view/52) While the cave area is flat and spacious enough for kids, the approach is quite rugged and may be a challenge for children under 5.
