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.
22m.
Good varied climbing, well protected and low in the grade. Start left of Priory, below the large block overhang at 8 metres. Climb suspect rock to the overhang and climb the steep crack on the left until you can step back right above the overhang. Climb the pleasant slabby wall and juggy steepening to reach the belay of Priory.

βeta: August 19: The first 6 metres or so are worryingly loose and poorly protected. Improves after that to give good varied climbing as described. | ||
