Rockfax Description
60m. A deservedly popular route with an exposed and sustained second pitch. Start at the right-hand rock tongue.
1. 25m Climb the tongue to a terrace, better than it looks but you can walk round it on the right.
2. 25m 4a Go up slabs left of a wide corner, then traverse left on good footholds to pass the left end of the main roof. Continue diagonally left to step round a rib.
3. 10m 4a Follow the rib directly.
