Northern Limestone (Inland)
A series of buttresses on the hillside overlooking Llanfairfechan. Much is blocky and shattered but Great Slab is a nice exception.
Parking and Approach
Approach via the Wales Coast Path from the top of Mount Road. Start as for Penmaen West Quarry but continue through the gate. Follow the path down a field and through a gap in a wall then trend up on a gentle diagonal (no track) to the top end of the crag. The routes are spread out down and left, the lowest (Great Slab) being just over a dry stone wall
This area includes Craig y Forwyn, Llanddulas escarpment, Castle Inn, Penmaenhead as well as many other sports crags along the A55 corridor. Many of the crags, including Craig y Forwyn, Llanddulas escarpment and Castle Inn all lie within land designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest, and vegetation removal, modification of rock faces, removal of rocks, etc. should be avoided.
