With Alpine climbing we refer to ice faces and more or less mixed routes high up
in the Andes. Besides the granite areas listed below rock climbing, the Central Andes have little to offer what we
could call a good rock. However, Cerro El Morado and Alto Los Leones are reported to be of
acceptable quality. Good classic ice and mixed routes are found in the valleys
of Casa Piedra and El Morado. A particularly beautiful mountain is the Cerro
Aparejo, however, partly made up of gypsum. Cerro Iglesias offers ice couloirs.
