Public access to Beacon Hill is restricted between 1st April-1st August to aid with conservation and restoration of the surrounding heathland (an initiative started in 2022 and extended each year after). Access for climbing can be arranged by calling the Beacon Hill Ranger team 24 hour prior to a visit and between 8am and 8pm on 07850 276224. If the duty ranger is unavailable please call the LCC out of hours helpdesk on 0116 3055000.
One person can arrange for a group visit providing they inform the ranger of the number of climbers visiting. Access will be via a gate locked with a combination lock and you must speak to a ranger to gain permission and the access code before visiting and leaving a voicemail is not sufficient. In addition, the following 2024 updated information must be adhered to in order to ensure continued access for climbing:
