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. 

 

Pitch 1. as per guidebook
Pitch 2. Sustained with spaced but good protection.From immediately behind the belay tree, climb a tricky black wall directly, passing right of a sapling and finishing up the short rib just right of a grotty corner.
