From tropical Atlantic beaches to rivers and the Sub-Saharan desert that stretches towards the border of Namibia, Angola showcases a variety of terrains and climbing opportunities. The area is culturally rich with ancient rock paintings and local history, where locals and village leaders climbed these surrounding rocks for ritualistic and coming of age ceremonies.
It is home to many initiatives that seek to develop climbing and sustainable tourism while uplifting local communities with clean water and electricity. World famous climber, Alex Honnold, spent time in 2015 raising awareness and implementing the support for the solar intitiative with the Honnold Foundation as well as opening trad, sport and free solo routes.

Seasons
Since Angola is situated along the Atlantic ocean much of the climate is determined by the sea surface temperatures and cold Benguela current.The climate can be split into four major zones: dry and semi-desert lowlands reaching toward the Namibian border rising up into escarpments, dry savanna regions to the east/southeast and the countrys forest regions in the North.
The rainy season lasts from October-May with coinciding humidity and heat. The total rainfall decreases from north to south and east to west making the northeastern parts of Angola the wettest. These rainy seasons are the hottest reaching average temperatures of 22-23°C. The dry season occurs from June-September with average temperatures reaching 18-20°C.
