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.
12m.
Just left of the corner of Embryo is a chossy-looking groove, which is actually more solid than it looks. Climb the groove trending very slightly rightwards to a small cave. Take care as there are some suspect blocks around the cave. So far the climbing is quite easy, but now make strenuous moves through the bulge above the cave to gain a good jug. This crux is not well protected. Finish more easily.
