  • The Llanberis Pass is a place of mountainous majesty. Visiting it for the first time is a major event in any climber's life and even for those who've been many times before it's hard not to be blown away by the amount of rock because it's everywhere. Upon first acquaintance, it can actually be quite mind-blowing, as there's so much - both in terms of quantity and quality.

      I wish it'd been shorts and t-shirt weather when we did it 🥶

    What guidebook were you guys using?

      We were using North Wales Bouldering Volume 1: Mountain Crags, by Simon Panton/Ground Up Publishing. That’s the definitive guide to the area and has absolutely everything you’ll need. If you’re after something a little less detailed, Boulder Britain by Niall Grimes featured a ‘greatest hits’ selection of the area, but it’s very selective in comparison to the definitive.

      If our budgets would stretch to it I’d be back to Australia in an instant. Never been for the bouldering though, but the trad and sport is world class!!

      @@ukclimbingofficial Most of my time is at Arapiles & the Grampians 😃 But change is awesome & culture has value 👌 Wales rock has both 👍

      You’re lucky if you live close to those areas - they’re two of the absolute best.
