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.

20m. on overhanging butress-Start at the left end of the ground level ledge,a couple of metres to the left of the yew tree stump.
Make long ,fingery reaches to reasonable holds above the small overlap.Easier but committing moves lead to a rest on the Agoraphobia traverse(and the first gear in the crack of agoraphobia)make hard moves right through the bulge to the in-situ thread.a good hold up and right leads to easier climbing to the top of the wall.
