Restricted Access

The seasonal climbing restriction applies to the zawn east of Minchin Hole (no routes currently) and for 2021,  all the routes east of and including "Hanger Them High", including all rolutes in Bosco's Cave are restricted due to nesting birds.  Bosco's Den itself is highly important as an archaelogical and conservation site and climbing is not permited inside the cave itself.

 

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

All routes east of (rightwards when looking in) from "Hanger them High" are restricted from March 1st until June 30th due to nesting choughs,   including all the routes in Bosco's Cave. Choughs are listed as Schedule 1 species under the Wildlife and Countryside act and it is a criminal offence to deliberately or recklessy disturb them or their nests.
