I should just point out that climbing is allowed at El Torcal and is documented in a couple of books (El Chorro Rockfax ISBN 978 1 873341 81 0) and David Munillas "Andalucia".
There are currently some banned areas close to the visitor station, but most routes are allowed. There is a lot of development going on at the moment which has included establishing a couple of Via Ferrata routes.
Thanks a lot for the information. My information was that climbing was banned. I took the liberty to use your very words on the page (see third paragraph at the end). I hope you don't mind.
I also added the two books you mentioned in the last section.
