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.
14m.
A good climb with a stiff start. Start at the pillar left of the big terrace-level cave, 5 metres right of the groove of White Hart (2). Pull up, arrange gear in the big pockets and slots (friends useful), and make bold moves up the rib and slight groove to gain small ledges. Continue up the corner to the right, and trend slightly rightwards up the steep wall, with a good thread on the left as you near the top.
