Restricted Access
The crag is owned and managed by Natural England and located in the Derbyshire Dales National Nature Reserve.
Seasonal Restrictions
Reason: Nesting Birds
2024 - IMPORTANT NEW UPDATE: The whole crag restriction is back in force (5pm 9th May). After lifting the restriction yesterday, the Peregrines were unfortunately observed to be significantly disturbed by the presence of climbers even well away from the restricted area. Thus Natural England have changed the signs on site and the whole crag is likely to remain restricted for the rest of the breeding season.
Rockfax Description
The hanging crack right of the cave opening is entered by a tough struggle. Follow the easier corner-crack above. Exit left or right with no change in grade. © Rockfax
