Great Wolfrey - Perfect Yorkshire GritstoneFri Night Video

© Dave Sutcliffe

Great Wolfrey... the best gritstone crag you've never been to?

It certainly looks that way in this excellent video from Dave Sutcliffe. Dave and team headed up there and knocked out a load of the classic routes, plus a few new ones for good measure.

With perfect grey gritstone, a peaceful outlook, and a spread of highball style wall climbs, Great Wolfrey is a brilliant summer gritstone venue - if you can find it!

Nice film. It's also a good place for anyone from lower grades ... really enjoyed our trip there sense checking and climbing the easier stuff for YMC.

Inspiring little film. Looks like a good venue.

Agreed on both counts. The only thing detracting somewhat for me was the incredible amount of chalk on so many of the holds.

Do you know what the access situation is? In my old 1988 guide it implies that official access is an issue/problem.

Minor problems now. CRoW means access is OK most times but there are agreed closures around the shooting season. The track is really boggy as you reach the bird pens so a couple of dry days is best in the warmer months (or footwear you are happy to sink in)
