Froggatt

Eastern Gritstone

Premier grit venue with many historic slab, crack and roof climbs. great routes and bouldering. Can be crowded at the weekend.

Easy access and many classic routes have ensured Froggatt has remained very popular over the years. Unfortunately, this is resulting in many of the famous routes becoming polished and having worn protection slots. So, instead of repeating that classic for the nth time, why not spread the load and choose a different crag?

A great gritstone edge! Classics such as Valkyrie and Chequer’s Crack left us pumped and in need if hand jam lessons. Would definitely recommend to the gritty minded.
