Description
A superbly- located zawn of vertigo-inducing steepness, whose black walls plunge straight into the sea at the bottom of the wide zawn. The climbs are very intimidating and require good judgement of conditions to be enjoyed to the full.
Getting There
Take B3306 St Ives - Pendeen Road to Gurnards Head Hotel and park on the verge opposite the Hotel. Walk down the lane to the right of the hotel, past cottages, and follow a signed footpath towards the coast, taking the higher, left-hand path where it splits. Gurnards Head is the large, rocky headland directly ahead. Right Angle cliff is easily located on the left, at the beginning of the headland.
