Orbayu

A 500‑metre, 13‑pitch sport line on the north face of the Naranjo de Bulnes in the Picos de Europa. Orbayu is sustained and exposed, culminating in a crux pitch the writeup rates at about 8c; the route requires sustained technical ability, efficient ropework on long pitches and psychological stamina at altitude. It is typically approached as a single objective that tests endurance across long, steep limestone pitches rather than isolated short cruxes.
