Arco del Tiempo

verified ACA 3B Unknown flood risk

Arco Del Tiempo is a spectacular chasm carved through the hillside by the Rio de la Venta. The largest natural arch in the world, Arco del Tiempo is a swim surrounded by breathtakingly high walls and verdant vegetation.

Down climb with the aid of fixed hand lines to a ledge big enough for 4 people, where you can rig a rappel of ~80' from fixed bolts. There will likely be rope protectors stashed there that you can use (as the lip is a bit sharp).
