Restricted Access

The stretch of cliffs between Dover and Kingsdown is owned by the National Trust and designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest and Special Area of Conservation. West of the 'zig zag' path descent route, climbing is banned year round due to security concerns from Dover Port (in reality this affects only one route, 'The One way Valve').

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 February to 31 July

Reason: Nesting Birds

Between 'Sentiera Luminosa' and 'The Verdant Tube' inclusively, climbing is restricted due to nesting peregrines between 1st March and 31st August. Between 'Some Like it Hot' and 'The Tube' inclusively, climbing is restricted due to nesting ravens between 1st Feb and 31st August

60m. A triangle Ramp at the base leads to a 60m chalk gully, requires tools to climb safely but easy climbing. however there is no adequate means to protect this route and the top out is a 3 meter section of crumbly fairly vertical unconsolidated chalk. 1st ascent on top rope but this is more of an easy abseil down then a memorable climb

Crag Access and topo's can be find on Kent climbing community facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/2696603973756278/?ref=group_header

first ascent 18/May/2020.
