UKC

Restricted Access

Parts of Craig y Don (as listed on UKC) have access restrictions:

Craig y Don - Lower and Middle
BMC RAD entry for Lower Craig y Don (inc. Craig y Don Middle)

Restrictions apply from 1 March - 15 August.
Reason: Nesting Birds (Kittiwakes, which tend to be late nesters).

These restrictions do not apply to the DWS routes listed on this page, Ledgend (provided the boat approach is used) and The Tide is High (But I'm Holding On) rightward to the Don Side Beach routes, i.e. including The Heel Hook Look. All these routes start and finish well to the right of the nesting areas.

Other areas listed here

No restrictions.

See BMC RAD entries for:

Traverse as for The Heel Hook Look past a very steep scoop to a final jug (more or less the high point of the traverse) then go straight up with a tricky blind sequence. Current guidebook shows the line too far right.
