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.
Bold in places, and on suspect rock. Start just left of Sinergen pitch two, and climb the shallow, left-facing, yellowish corner to a small thread at 3m on the left. From the thread move right under a jutting fin of rock and pull up into the niche. Arrange protection here (medium to large cams useful), then bridge steeply up and left onto the suspect hanging pillar itself. Climb direct up the front of the pillar with extreme care and finish just left of a short scrappy corner. Currently in a dangerous state, but potentially a reasonable pitch once the remaining loose blocks have been removed.
