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.

40m. No description has been contributed for this climb.

βeta: There's a bee hive on route, can bee avoided but only just. Probably best climbed in full bee keeping kit with some jars for honey.

βeta: Beware of bee nest in overhang crux jug, and of a very chossy start/finishing section.
