Portugal rock climbing photographs
The photograph opposite shows Joao Pena bouldering on Pes de Arrasto (7c) at Malveirs, Sintra.
Malveirs is a classic bouldering area close to Sintra. The rock is yellow/white granite with a medium to hard grain. The rock dries very fast and has a predominance for steep and powerful problems.
