Description Suggest change

This small gritstone crag is situated in an idyllic woodland setting. The climbs are generally moderate in their grade, with flat landings. It is common to see both roped up climbers of people soling side by side. Some of the routes are fairly steep making this an option when the weather isn't perfect.

Also if you are not confident soloing the routes, there are still a number of good low level traverses to keep you busy.

The climbs are described in 3 sections, Left Area, Central Area and Right Area.

Getting There Suggest change

Park in a small pullout on the A58 South of Bardsey. From the parking follow the path along a disused railway, through some woods to meet up with a bridle way.

When possible cross the river at some stepping stones and walk left through wood to the crag.
