It's never too hot to climb © Andre Hedger

Crag features

Llandudno is best known for it short desperate slab climbing above dodgy bolts from the 80's. But more recently it is being frequented by a new generation of climbers looking for new urban bouldering areas. If nothing else it's a sweet spot to chill with your buddies after a good training session and watch the sun go down over the sea.

The sport climbing is on near vertical slab with rough crystals as holds. It is highly technical and quite hard for the grade as many of the origanal holds have come off over the years. The bolts are old and fragile and you DO risk serious injury if they break. Toproping is a popular alternative or a means to gauge the route before it is attempted on lead. There is a large variety of boulder problems to choose from but most require either brass balls or short term memory.
