Routes in Malta for selected grade

On the west face.

Climb the weird pillar and exit above the left hand stalagtite or direct finish at 6a

Up the same weird pillar, exiting above the right hand stalagtite.

Bulges directly below the split grey roof, avoiding the last bulge by stepping right and then back left. Jugs on the left wall help you past the overhanging wide crack.

The left side of the thin arete finishing up the groove. Loose.

Up the column and left past pockets to the horizontal break, up past an overhang and then the centre of the impending wall above

Start at the column and take the bulging wall directly to the top

The rib just right of Freedom, taking the centre of the buttress past flakes then over a bulge using slopers

Slabs out at the top and kills the rope on the way down.

Increasingly hard. Technical on the upper slab.

Through the roof ion the centre.

Traverse left to just short of the large cave. Climb up and left via the easiest line to the top.

Climb up to a thin crack veering to the left. Follow its general direction through a sparse collection of good holds before exiting up.

Climb from a corner at the bottom of the valley to a good ledge. Continue up a small overhang and then straight up.

P1 - Ascend through the weakness in the overhangs. Climb the slab above aiming for its top left side.

P2 - Up the centre of the steeper slab above. Continue up with difficulty to a narrow ledge (a hanging plaque commemorates the 1st and 2nd ascents). Sign the guest book!

P3 - Continue up the exposed slab with good moves and exposure to the top.

7m right of Crossly Notes is a line up the vague white groove left of a steep red central pillar capped by a prow. Start 30m along the shelf just up and left of a vegetated ledge. Surprising holds.

20m 5a. Go diagonally left up the slabs to below the white groove. Awkward moves up the groove. Exit right across ledges to a 2 piton and nut belay.

40 5b. Traverse to the left end of the ledges. Bold moves lead up and left on black rock to a hole, 2 threads. Up and left again across a black wall, piton. After 3m move to regain the groove and improving holds (and gear), to under a leftward leaning overlap. After 3m traverse diagonally left to finish up a stragely featured wall right of a vegetated corner. Belay from cracks below easy slabs in the left side of the pillar above a prow.

20m 4a. Easy slabs trending as far right as you can to thread belays at a ledge. Magnificent!

Furthest left route, outside the cave.

Brilliant lay-backing up the right side of the perched flake, starting at a shallow gully right of the dry stone wall, finishing up the thin diagonal crack.

First Pitch is a traverse above the sea level

1st pitch: Low level traverse 2nd pitch: Slight overhang 3rd Pitch: Traverse and roof

From the ledge diagonally left up the darkly coloured wall to a crack, (where you'll find an old piton). Up to a sloping ledge then the wall above. Move left to a crack in the rib. Up this until 5m below the top you can follow the diagonal crack heading right to finish.

Climb the steep flake crack on the right side of the cave past an old piton trending left. Finish up the excellent crack and wall above.

Climb awkwardly out of the back of the recess below Snowman, then finish up the wall trending right

Start 3m right of LDLH. Up and trend right to shared finish with FOTB.
