Seasonal Restrictions
Dates: 1 March to 30 June

There are nesting choughs near “The Hanging Basket of Babylon” to “The Blue Horse”. Please avoid all of these routes during nesting seasons.
Historically Yellow Brick Road has also been restricted, however this chough pair has moved.
Rockfax Description
A great route that makes a high level left-to-right traverse of this steep wall and starts and finishes at the top of the crag. From a belay on the central fin, descend a groove to a good ledge. Traverse easily rightwards to a wall which gets harder until you are forced to down climb through some juggy terrain and gain a rest in a niche. It is possible to finish direct from here but far better to carry on in the same line past a peg to gain the base of a prominent groove which is followed to the top. © Rockfax
