Desnivel is Spain's first monthly independent climbing and mountaineering magazine, published since 1981.

Desnivel was founded in 1981 by Spanish mountaineer and journalist Darío Rodríguez.

[1][2] Under the leadership of Rodríguez the magazine became very influential in Spanish climbing circles.

[3][4] The magazine is published monthly in Madrid and is focused on mountaineering (Pyrenees, Alps, expeditions) and climbing (Iberian Peninsula).

Today the Editorial Desnivel is publishing mountaineering books and three magazines: Desnivel (mountaineering/climbing), Escalar (sport climbing) and Grandes Espacios (outdoor).
