Crag features
Wadi Nant Bidi offers a wealth of climbing styles- from steep boulders to traditional crack climbing, thuggish sport routes and even an 11 pitch epic. The area is nestled behind behind a small local village and thankfully receives a lot of shade from about 1 pm onward. The two main crags have a good range of sport routes (some a couple of pitches) which have been developed over the last few years (thanks mainly to Theo Giovanni and Pete Aldwinkle). The climbing is typical of the area, hopelessly smooth or perilously sharp. Loose choss can be encountered on higher climbs. There are a number of good test pieces for the intermediate climber (6c's & 7a's) This is a popular crag with both the local expats (if they make it over the border) and those who happen to work in the region, but you would be surprised to find someone there on the same day as you in this remote area. Red Armada Publishing are documenting the topos for the area.
Approach notes
Parking is available as far as you can drive into the Wadi. Take the 2nd fork in the road after the rubbish tip and drive until you join the off road track. Follow to the end where there is obvious parking spaces. The crags are in the canyon to the right. The parking is outside a local mans house. He is a little eccentric but smiles and greetings go a long way. Being sensitive to the culture allows use of the area to continue.
