Restricted Access

No known access issues. However Anglesey Council (who manage the coastal path that passes close to the top pf the crag)  have recieved complaints from walkers, that climbers cause a hazard by belaying across the path. The neighbouring farmer has also blamed climbers for the collapse of the boundary wall, due to climbers using it to belay from. Please avoid doing this!

The land above the crag is now designated open access land.

Multiple Gul nests around the area, worth inspecting your route before commiting.

Rockfax Description
Good climbing up the curving grooves above the start of Icarus.
1) 4c, 10m. As for Icarus to the ledge.
2) 5a, 25m. Climb a crack to the roof then make hard moves left and over it - strenuous to place gear. Move up to a corner then up to a roof and chimney. Tackle this, then move left to the finish of The Sun. © Rockfax
