A55 Sport Climbs – 3rd edition

Introduction

The A55 Sport Climbs – 3rd edition climbing guide features 437 routes from F2 – F8c including a handful of trad routes in full colour and detailed topos.

Eighteen sport climbing crags are described in the A55 Sport Climbs – 3rd edition, with the one exception of Tyddyn Hywel, and are all located between Junctions 16 and 31 on the A55 and a short hop from the expressway. They are only 1.5 hours from Manchester and 45 minutesby car from Llanberis and Gogarth.

Easy route finding, technical climbing, and bolted routes makes for a fun day out. It’s a great way to bag a few routes on the way back from Anglesey or Snowdonia or enjoy a full day of varied and fun climbing with short walk-ins.

The book features inspiring action photos from leading climbing photographers, full-colour photo topos throughout, detailed route descriptions and approach maps, graded lists, environmental and access information and a historical section with contributions from many of the area’s most prolific pioneers.
