Approach notes

Please DO NOT CLIMB HERE AT NIGHT.
The use of DRONES is prohibited.
Access Advice
Access to Almscliff is a privilege, not a right. The crag is on privately owned land and is not designated as open access. This means that it's very important that climbers look after the crag and behave well to maintain a good relationship with the farmer and the currently excellent access we enjoy.
The farmer who owns Almscliff does not want the crag to be used at nightime for a lamping venue and continued daytime access relies on climbers respecting his wishes. For advice on how to pick an appropriate alternative venue for lantern sessions and minimise your impact, read this article

Please note: It was reported on 21 June 2021 that there is a thrush nesting in 'Birds Nest Crack' so please tread carefully.| Couldn't retrieve a hex at the top of Zig Zag, feel free to try and get out, and either keep for yourself, or message me to return it. J.upton94 - 03/Dec/22 |
