Restricted Access

Langcliffe is regularly patrolled by YDNPA wardens and conservation volunteers. The quarry area is also designated as a Scheduled Monument under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 and English Heritage consider that any further drilling to place bolts may constitute a criminal offence unless consent is gained via them from the Secretary of State.

Skyline Buttress is in private ownership and no formal access agreement is in place. Negotiations have failed to resolve the issue with the landowner of this buttress, who has occasionally asked climbers to leave. 

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 31 July

Reason: Nesting Birds

TEMPORARY CLIMBING RESTRICTION FOR 2023 BIRD NESTING SEASON
 
 
Climbing is temporarily restricted between 1st March and until the end of July 2023 on all routes including the skyline buttress.

 

The first pitch of the old trad line of The Message is climbed via 3 bolts on The Reply and the 4th on Return to Sender to a stance in the niche. Move up right and climb the left side of the blunt rib via two new bolts to the lower-off on Return to Sender.
