Descripción

This initial section is part of a sequence of walls that are more uniform and located closer to the well-liked Long Layback Area, along the upper path.

Unfortunately, this particular wall is not frequently climbed and can be unattractive with a slippery, green appearance for much of the time. However, this situation may improve with the woodland management plan, which aims to facilitate better air flow to reach the rock.

Restricciones heredado de Harrison's Rocks

Harrison's Rocks is owned by climbers and is managed on their behalf by the British Mountaineering Council with funding from the English Sports Council. Car Parking is Pay and Display. If approaching from the train station, do not trespass the private property to get to zig-zag wall, instead follow the path to the left.

Acceso

Access to this area is also available from the top path near the carpark, as well as by descending the gully located to the left of this wall.

Ética heredado de Harrison's Rocks

The Sandstone is very soft -- leading is not allowed. Most climbs are top-roped, and ropes should be extended over the edge and set up in a way such as to minimize the wear on the rock. Top-out and down-climb is preferred to lowering. Abseiling is, also, forbidden.

Ascend this route, which has no visible features or holds and presents a serious challenge due to the very small holds available.

Climb up the crack and navigate to the greasy finish. Make use of the holds present on either side of the crack.

Located between Sticky Wicket and Rotten Stump Wall and requires avoiding holds on both.

Use the pockets on the face to gain the break, and then stand up on the postbox slot. Finally, use the tiny sloping crimps to rock up for the top.

This route requires long moves between holds and slopers that are often greasy and unpleasant to grip.

Ascend the edge of the rock face to connect with Sliding Corner.

Begin by using the chimney to establish yourself on the left wall. From there, traverse around the corner with balance and proceed directly up the left side of the arete using regular but awkward holds. Finally, exit with a delicate mantle shelf. This climb can be very rewarding and enjoyable for those who attempt it.

The narrow crack can be found on the wall of the gully located immediately to the right of Sliding Corner.

This is an easy chimney that is popular with children. However, it is important to note that children should still walk off and not be lowered down.

This adjacent crack to the chimney offers a fun laybacking challenge and eventually merges with Easy Chimney.

Located between Fingernail Crack and Dinosaurus on the right-hand side of the slab, this climb follows the right arete. A toe jam at the base of the arete is permitted before making your way straight up to the vegetated top-out.
