CLIMBING ON THE MYTHICAL ATLANTIS


CLIMBING IN SA PEDRERA D´ES SAVINAR
The impressive descent that leads us to Atlantis's lost City, or to what is the same thing but quarry sounds a bit less mythological to "Sa pedrera des Savinar", when we can looked backward we see a great rocky vertically clump, there it is a great place where people can practise (specially on weekends) the climbing. In the picture above we can see (but really small) the tower of sabinar, where from there are extraordinarys sights to the famous islands Vedrà and Vedranell.

Of course the first quality of the climbers is not to have dizziness and then to be acquainted with all kinds of devices, strings etc, that it is necessary to go with it in order for the success of the climbing, specially the raise.

For those as me who not dare to rise, also inducement is to see all this from below, suffering with any incident that they can have in the heights for those who practise it.

Certainly after the difficult raise, the descent comes and this one is much simpler and certainly much more fast. For those who don´t practise climbing, our descent does not stay here, we lack much for going down up to the mythical Atlantis, also for us the way down will be faster. The raise on our way back and way up will be much harder.
