The Media Luna Tower and Mocho Wall are the most accessible climbing routes from the same Cerro Torre base. It is a unique experience to be climbing on this huge rock paradise. We are going to stay just 2 h walking from the Cerro Torre Maestri's route start point. The granite rock quality can't be better. The beauty of every climbing pitch is not under discussion. The East Face orientation and the proximity of Cerro Torre make this place one of the best wind protected places of this Valley. We have the impressive west faces of Fitz Roy, Aguja Guillaumet, Aguja Poincenot, Aguja De la Silla, Aguja Desmochada, Aguja Saint Exupery, Aguja de la "s", and other smaller just in front of us; definitely, one of the most real rock climber dreams. The Mocho Wall is an accessible climbing with really beautiful rock climbing pitches.

The most of the pitches are classical 6a-6b degree difficulty with just two 6c sections, but with easy optional jummaring. There is less commitment than other Patagonian Towers but it permit us to enjoy the whole climbing trip. The approach from the Norwegian Camp is just a 30 minutes walking.
