Sport Climbing in England & Wales, Volume 2 - South
Südwestengland & Süd-Wales
Tags
The popularity of sport climbing in the UK has exploded in recent years, resulting in a huge surge in bolting in almost all corners of the country. Over two volumes, Sport Climbing in England & Wales provides a comprehensive set of topos to more than 170 crags, from world-class outcrops such as Kilnsey, Malham and Raven Tor, to the slate quarries of North Wales, the popular crags of the Wye Valley, the Cheddar Gorge and famous sea cliffs of Portland and Swanage. It also introduces a wealth of lesser-known bolted venues all across the country, all of which add to the superb variety of sport climbing on offer in the UK.
This book, Volume 2, includes more than 4600 routes on 101 crags across the south of England and Wales, including Carmarthen Bay, the Gower Peninsula, Swansea Bay, the Welsh Valleys, Gilwern, the Wye Valley, Avon, Cheddar (north side only), Portland, Lulworth, Swanage, Devon and Cornwall.
All grades are represented, from the easiest beginner routes to test-piece climbs that rank amongst the hardest in the world, though the book is predominantly aimed at those climbing from F5 to F7b, with these routes given the most attention.
Despite a huge geographic coverage, this compact guidebook manages to describe pretty much all of the worthwhile sport crags in the south of England and Wales, including detailed access, approach and parking information alongside full photo-topos and super-accurate maps.
