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.
P1 Climb a corner to reach a massive flake. Layback round to the right and follow the flake past lots of dangerous blocks to a ledge and tree belays.
Walk right (facing in) along the terrace about 8m to an obvious steep groove.
P2. Climb the groove to its end and take the steep wall direct to the top.
