Hiya,

Looking for some recommendations for climbing locations near St Mawgan. Non-tidal, easy grades up to HVS, can walk up/down.

Thanks in advance,

In reply to BabyGoat:

Roche Rock isn't far away. Inland, close to the road. Very interesting rock type!

Guidebook is 'Cheesewring and South East Cornwall'.

In reply to SallyM:

But best to go to St Agnes or down to Bosigran

In reply to BabyGoat:

Roche Rock is certainly the best option, guess your wanting to take groups. Ive been there a few times, back down there in July.

In reply to Stone Idle:

re "go to St Agnes", I'm not sure you'll find any of the following criteria fulfilled round here! "Non-tidal, easy grades up to HVS, can walk up/down."

In reply to cornishben:
There is a nice Severe which has a straightforward abseil. But I fancy I mentioned west Penwith.

In reply to BabyGoat:

Yeah definitely steer clear of Carn Gowla (St Agnes) given your criteria.

Roche Rock as mentioned is your best bet.

Nearby Helman Tor has a handful of routes, though unhelpfully they're Vdiffs and E3/4s for the most part.

Lots of good climbing to suit your criteria in Luxulyan Woods but it's very verdant at this time of year and a bit of a mission so not ideal and I'm its biggest advocate.

Hawke's Tor and Trewortha Tor on Bodmin Moor has a bunch of good stuff to fit the bill too, but from St Mawgan you might just as well head west to Penwith and ten lifetime's worth of climbing down there - for which best to buy a guide
