Restricted Access

UPDATE AUG25:

After constructive engagement with Forestry England and the BMC the open access closure has now been removed from the southern end ONLY of the Symonds Yat cliffs.  This includes Far South Buttress, New Orleans Buttress and The Final Zone.  

 Access is contingent on strictly observing the closed section from Introductory Rocks to Bowlers Hole inclusive.  There are unstable sections of the cliff and contractors will need to access these sectors at any time until Spring 2026.

 Please observe and respect signage which demarks the closed areas, and do not climb nor take access on foot beyond the signs.

16m. Takes the steep wall right of the upper groove of White Hart by sustained and quite pumpy climbing. Climb White Hart to the shallow cave where the groove steepens and kinks left. Bridge up above the cave to fix gear in the wall, then make a tricky traverse rightwards until under the peg (handy sidepull out right). Make technical and bold moves to reach the first peg, continue steeply on better holds past a second peg, and finish direct. The pegs have recently been replaced.
