It’s hard to imagine a more picturesque limestone venue in the Peak District. The crag faces south, but depending on the time of year it loses the sun by mid-afternoon, making it ideal for both summer and winter climbing. The only downside in winter is that after heavy rain the ground can become very wet, though that’s easily solved by bringing a tarp.
This classic limestone crag is home to a range of fingery, polished ’90s test pieces that still pack a challenge. Its flat, level base provides perfect landings, making it ideal for bouldering pads and family-friendly days out. A true gem that blends history, quality climbing, and stunning surroundings.
