Restricted Access

Night firing normally occurs on Tues & Thurs but can alternate to Mon & Wed.

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 1 August

Reason: Nesting Birds

The restriction from 'Charybdis' to 'Leap of Faith' (Boulder Choke area) remains in place until Aug 1st. The main parts of the Leap are not affected. 

There may be seal pubs in the Leap in the Autumn - signs will be posted on the gate at St Govans car park if there are any restrictions for climbers at this time

Rockfax Description
The rising line of cracks and blobs gives a wonderful pitch. High in the grade and the moves to reach the central ramp are quite committing. Climb the cracks (good but hard earned gear) to the ramp. Move up ledges on the left to reach a small groove. Climb this to its top then step left and belay as for Minotaur. © Rockfax

βeta: I didn't think that this was particularly worthy of the fluttery heart symbol. The only slightly bold section is near the bottom where you can get a small wire in a crack out to left. This then protects the tricky move right. After that it is good gear and steady climbing. Fantastic route!!
