Routes as top rope in Kenya

A superb direct finish to Corpse. Instead of heading right as for Corpse, hang on a big jug, place a nut, and blast upward with some steep, gymnastic moves through the shallow groove at half height. Pause to get some gear in before continuing on direct on very thin and balancey moves to get onto the final slab finish. Combined with the first half of Corpse this makes a sustained, varied and interesting route. Well worthwhile! (First top rope ascent by Hamish and Max)

Pumpy, then delicate. Start at 2m left from the far right end of the overhang (this avoids the start for The Quick and the Dead). Layback 10 feet up a short but nice finger crack and reach up to a jug just over the roof. Reach high and left for a second good hold, then hard moves to gain the black slab above. Very delicate moves up the slab for 20 feet to easier ground and finish on the slab above. Done on top rope. Anyone up for leading / placing a couple of bolts?

Start on the prominent finger ledge then move to jug just below the grassy ledge. Move right and continue on thin slab to finish. Alternative is to move left on upper slab.

Using the safety bolt above to safely climb down to the obvious ledge 3m from the top. EXPOSED CLIPPING

5m right of the obvious ledge climb upwards on good holds, variation is slightly trickier with more slabby moves, excellent climbing!

Start at the bottom of the ledge moving left around the blank wall before traversing right to good holds, follow the grooves to the top.

Start at the bottom of the ledge moving left around the blank wall before traversing right to good holds, follow the grooves to the top.

Use safety bolts to secure yourself before clipping, very EXPOSED CLIPPING you must use a safety bolt!

Start on the left hand side of the prominent crack and by wedging yourself between the flake and main wall make your way up to the bolts.

Start on the right hand side of the prominent crack and by wedging yourself between the flake and main wall make your way up to the top of the flake, from here move leftwards to the chock stone and on delicate holds move back to the right, high holds to the top.

This route starts with a hard boulder problem (belayer be ready!) on delicate holds move upwards.

Start at the furthest right hand of the nose and on delicate holds keeping to the rib of the rock move upwards.

Start on the left side of the prominent gap and with difficulty wedge through the gap to the top.

Start in the centre of the crack and move easily upwards and left, once reaching the roof on good holds pull up and right. Abseil of the left side of the rock indicated on the topo.

3 bolts on the far right hand side, EXPOSED CLIPPING use safety bolt. Start up the broad spur follow onto a blunt rib climbed direct.

2 bolts half a meter down from the edge 2m right of Hakuna Coffee use the same safety bolt as Hakuna Coffee, EXPOSED CLIPPING use safety bolt. Start between 2 trees, on the right of the groove follow this or a direct variation up the salamander wall.

This is an awkward clip, the bolts and 2 and half meters below the edge roughly 2m right of Moto Moto, very EXPOSED CLIPPING you must use a safety bolt! Start left for Black Rhino but follow the left side of the groove then continue straight up through the steep and rooty wall. Excellent climbing!

3m right of Moto Moto, there will be 3 bolts. EXPOSED CLIPPING use safety bolt. Start at the lowest point of the rock, left of the big tree. Climb the crack initially with difficulty easing to a slabby delicate finish. Superb climbing!

2m right of Bat Attack , there will be 2 bolts and use the same safety bolt as Bat attack. EXPOSED CLIPPING use safety bolt. Start at the left of 2 grooves then step right after the overhang to follow the steep right hand groove exiting left to finish.

Strange set up, you must use the 2 safety bolts and lower yourself off the left hand side of the triangular block at the top of the crag and approximately 3m below the top into grooves you will see MFC. VERY EXPOSED CLIPPING you must use safety. Start on the left of the dead tree which is wedged into the rock, and follow up on delicate holds.

Furthest bolts to the right hand side of the crag. EXPOSED CLIPPING you must use safety. Start in the furthest left corner up the steep wall until reaching good holds in the grooves. There are a few lines up this route.

Bolts just below Fig tree. Use tree for safety to clip.

Start at the right hand side of the prominent crack, climb to the first ledge 4m above the ground. From here take a few delicate moves upwards and right before traversing left across the crack (this is the crux). Continue upwards for 3m, until you reach 2 bulges, thereafter traverse right back across the crack and around the corner until you are directly below the bolts, from here climb the last 4m.

A pretty cliff line facing the south. Excellent views of the wildlife below and a fun intermediate climb.

Sport route up to access anchors 5a on back side of baboon face. Once roped climb western face.

In between Tisia 1 and 3, quite a steep climb, with little holds. The rock is not very nice. You must use a tope rope anchor that you access from the South of Tisia Rock.

One very visual crack straight up. Good rock here.

This requires access from the top and you anchor on two trees. It is a good climb with two stages, that joins a ledge and potentially a bee hive. You then climb straight up to the anchor point.

Quite thick trees at the base. Climb to the left of a small tree up a small crack, you must traverse left and then right and straight up. Quite a technical move and a hard climb at the top. You must access the top to use a top anchor.

Climd around the back, take caution of bees to get top rope access. Rap off the West side and then re-climb up the only major crack on the West side.
