Bienvenida a Cuba, the land of salsa, tropical landscapes, colorful street fronts — and espléndidas climbing spots.
Most Cuban climbers set their tents and their sends in the Valle de Viñales, the Caribbean’s premier climbing destination and home to some of the finest limestone in the hemisphere. While this simple recipe pleases many crusher’s palates, climbing guide Heidi Wirtz likes to add a little spice to the mix.
Heidi aims to introduce an element of mindfulness and confidence-building to the climbs. With a balanced blend of cragging and cultural excursions, intertwined with yoga sessions, slacklining, and dance sessions, her retreat provides her clients with an engrossing, encouraging, and all-encapsulating Cuban experience.
