Crag features
The cliff at Trout Cove is located in the community of Centreville on the Digby Neck. Although it is a relatively small crag, it offers high quality sport climbing on steep and solid basalt, with excellent holds and positive friction.
The bouldering area of Trout Cove has yielded over 40 boulder problems on high quality Basalt which is really unique for the region. The problems vary in difficulty from V0 to V7 providing a good circuit for beginners or a warm-up for the difficult projects waiting on the nearby short steep cliff.
Approach notes
From Digby, follow Route 217 west towards Digby Neck. About 24km past Digby, turn right at a sign for Centreville (this road is approximately 200m before reaching a Wilson’s Gas Station). Drive to the end of the road where you will see the cliff on the right hand side, facing the ocean. A gravel road just before the last house on the main road leads past the base of the cliff. Park in a small pull-out just in front of a boulder and follow the short trail from here (20 seconds) up to the cliff.
No Access Issues
The cliff is on private land and it faces a number of backyards in the community of Centreville. Climber/local relations have been excellent to date, but continued access depends on respectful behaviour of visiting climbers. Therefore please keep noise to a minimum, do not block the road, and keep the place clean.
