Sport routes on Peak Lime are notorious for their powerful bouldery style, often disjointed by rests and inconsistant climbing on the upper sections. Listed are a selection of climbes that I feel represent the best the area has to offer. Some may be a bit disjointed but have history behind them, the others offer a bit more than extended bouldering, all are a must for any aspiring peak sport nerd.

Probably the largest holds of any Peak Limestone 8a, but that doesn't mean it's easy!
