please hit me up with knowledge...
easter holiday coming up.
i think we will head to the orange house at Finestrat due to the price being so good.
should we fly easy jet to alicante?

i wanna know the names of crags with short (hard) routes in the area, as well as possible easier multi pitch stuff (max three pitches). best routes. etc etc...

or, just direct me to the thread that i could not find in the search.

thanks, chappers

I think sleazy to Alicante is the way to go. Gandia has some shorter harder stuff, can get pretty warm though. Sector VIPs at Sella too, but again quite warm.

Only multipitch thing I did there was Via Costa Blanca 6c on the Penon de Ifach. Nice and varied and the 6c pitch is aidable if you fluff it (ask me).

Your call. Some mates were there last week, said it was good but getting hotter. Some shady bits like Forada will be OK, but if are looking for coolth, might be better elsewhere at Easter.
