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. 

 

15m. The obvious first crack in the wall. Climb the crack for around 4mts until you can put some protection (the crack is to wide to protect in the lower section). Then you move up slightly right until you reach a very comfy area with very easy steps. Then climb the corner to the tree or if you feel adventurous climb in the middle of the rock. You can belay from that ledge of scramble a bit more a belay from the next ledge.
