Restricted Access

There is a loose flake on pitch 6 of Giant's Crawl near the belay - extreme care is needed.

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

Peregrines have been known to nest on the upper section of B Buttress, above Giants Crawl as well as C Buttress. The last time the birds were known to nest was 2014, but if visiting the crag early in the season please be aware that they could return and report to the BMC if birds are seen nesting.

Rockfax Description
A huge pitch that takes on the intimidating ground that lies above the initial difficulties of The Shining Path. From the pocket on The Shining Path, make hard moves right and up over a bulge onto the wall above. Head right to the arete (peg) before making another set of difficult moves to a ramp. The middle of the slabs to the right (peg) leads past small overlaps to the top. © Rockfax
