1-day Zanzi peak rock climbing expedition

This 1-day Zanzi peak rock climbing expedition is a demanding rock climbing adventure in an amazing rock structure, very close to Santiago de Chile.

Zanzi peak (3700 m) is part of the north face of the Cerro Catedral de lo Valdés. It's located close to Baños Morales, in the Cajón del Maipo area, just south of the Volcán river. But its structural beauty and importance in the Chilean climbing world makes it a very special place. Plus, it's easily spotted from the road because it's the highest of the three walls placed there.

This needle shaped wall, has a total altitude gain of 1100 meters and it's made out of sandstone. Because of the verticality of its routes and the perfection of its chimneys it is an iconic place for rock climbing not only in Chile, but in all South America.

My plan is to guide you there safely and enjoying every step. We'll start with a 2 hour approach hike. Then we'll start the climbing of one of the many routes up. My favourite route starts with a 600 meters 510b climb followed by 2 vertical sections of 300 meters, with a 30 minutes walk between them. And in the way down we'll use an established rappel route.

So, if you're looking for a demanding climbing trip send me a request now and we'll make this 1-day Zanzi peak rock climbing expedition happen.
