Been climbing for year now, mainly indoors due to my location But iv recently got into trad climbing and am enjoying it alot.

But getting to the point....it will soon be my 21st and i want to do something memorable/fun, rather than getting smashed like every other Dick, Tom and Harry at Uni. What crags would you guys suggest? Maybe some kind of Multi-pitch that takes up the day? Any sensible suggestions would be wonderful!

Cheers

Depends where you currently live. Do you have transport and how far are you willing to travel?

I'm sure more people will be able to help once you provide this information

Scrambles and Easy Climbs in the Lake District / Scrambles and Easy Climbs in Snowdonia have some good mountain days / enchainments if you're in either of those areas that should do for an adventure

You haven't said what sort of grades you're after or where you're based, but some obvious long easy multipitches would be Commando Ridge or Lands End Long Climb in Cornwall or Amphitheatre Buttress or Slanting Buttress Ridge Route in North Wales.

Easy. Just go to North Wales.

Idwall Slabs will be good for you. 4 or 5 routes on the slabs plus Continuation wall to make the 3 pitch routes into 4 or 5 pitches.

Crazy talk, you want to go Langdale

Grooved Arête on Tryfan.

Grooved Arête (HVD 4a)

Climb this and finish off your day by jumping 'Adam & Eve' and perhaps a further detour around the Glyderau?
This is a rough approximation of the route:_

You would have to factor in slight changes, but could be good...

Old Man of Hoy. That's a good route.

Sorry - edit, just realised you are after trad routes.
