Magdalena
verified
Ungraded
Unknown flood risk
Castril, Granada
Two rappels, 25m then 28m, cover most of what Magdalena has to offer; it runs dry outside spring, so timing decides whether the drive to Castril is worth it.
Commonly paired in the same day with the nearby Buitre (Cerrada de Lezar) or Tunez canyons rather than run alone.
