Seasonal Restrictions
Dates: 1 March to 1 August
Reason: Nesting Birds
The restriction from 'Charybdis' to 'Leap of Faith' (Boulder Choke area) remains in place until Aug 1st. The main parts of the Leap are not affected.
There may be seal pubs in the Leap in the Autumn - signs will be posted on the gate at St Govans car park if there are any restrictions for climbers at this time
Rockfax Description
The easiest climb in the Leap gives good climbing up the groove line right of the smooth brown wall. From the top of the lower groove, tricky moves back left gain the upper corner to the right of the large roof. Follow this, with care, to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: My first time in The Leap what a wonderful experience. From the top it looks dark and dismal, but from inside, it's huge, light, quiet and atmospheric. Superb. Until we climbed out. Shape Up was horribly greasy all the way up although we've had good weather all week. I wonder if the two months of continual rain previously had washed sh1te down it. | ||
