Access Banned

As described in the 2010 CC guide, climbing at Symonds Yat is only permitted on the north-west facing cliffs - from The Introductory Rocks to the Final Zone inclusive.

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

Peregrine falcons have established a nest since 2019 on Strathdon, in the White Wall.  Climbers should therefore avoid all routes from Motorway Madness to Night Nurse, inclusive, during the restricted period. 

 

2 pitches. Start beneath and just right of the hanging arete.

1 50 ft. Pull over the initial overhang and follow the groove to the tree belay at its top.

2 30 ft. Go up the easy broken rib behind the tree, using another tree's roots to finish.

1969-72.

βeta: The pillar at the top right is loose, it moved when I tried to place a hex, so I didn\'t place gear or use that. Its huge so advise caution for both leader and belayer/anyone on the ground.
