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.
7m.
A short but stiff problem which tackles the slim bulging wall left of Arachnid. Above 4 metres the climbing eases considerably. Effectively a solo, although a low friend placement is possible, and there is gear on the easier ground above the crux moves. Holds in the groove to the left are out of bounds.
