A few small crags are located on the Delhi Ridge, the northernmost tip of the Aravalli Range. The rock here is a lovely deep red quartzite, solid and hard - this is the red rock that was used in the Red Fort, Humayan's Tomb and numerous other monuments around the city.

A 10m partially quarried freestanding pinnacle of quartzite with a small temple on top. Best with a top rope, but some ok boulder problems / highball solos too.

Note: descent off the top of the pinnacle is a little tricky. Make sure you scope it out before committing to the top.
