Rocarena Climbing Center, Cayo Coco, Cuba

The Rocarena is a huge climbing circuit that was inaugurated in May 2015. It’s located in Cayo Coco, just next to the hotel Sol Cayo Coco, see the distance table and interactive map at the bottom of this page. It was assembled by the German company CON-IMPEX, representative in Cuba of the firm Kristall Turm who specialized in high-rope courses and climbing and bouldering walls.

This is a fun and challenging aerial adventure for all ages. The 13-meter hexagonal structure has three levels supported by eighteen 32-meter high masts. The circuit include up to 90 activities of varying degrees of difficulty, and can accommodate 120 people who can enjoy the various elements simultaneously.

The circuit is made of platforms, ropes, and all-kinds of funny and unusual objects. The first-level platform, at just one meter above ground with 12 climbing elements, is designed for kids from 4 to 8 years of age.

There is no fixed course, each person can choose their climbing route without being obstructed by others or having to wait for long periods. The higher you go, the more challenging it gets. The highest level of the main tower serves as a viewing platform. KristallTurm has a team of experts who check each installation prior to use to ensure that the highest safety standards are strictly adhered to. Each climber wears a harness with a highly-secure system with 2 snap hooks.
