Outdoor Trad Climbing on Froggatt Edge

Join us for a day's outdoor trad climbing at the Peak District's beautiful Froggatt Edge. This event is suitable for experienced climbers as well as climbers with lead climbing experience who are looking to start climbing outdoors.

Froggatt is a popular edge, with a fabulous view over the Derwent Valley. The cliff is relatively low lying which means it escapes the worst of the weather, faces the afternoon sun, and has many routes of a slabbier nature than is usual for gritstone. The main edge has a wide range of routes in the lower to mid grades as well as harder routes. Lots of 3* routes to choose from.

To attend this event you will have some climbing experience (either indoors or outdoors, preferably with Outdoorlads) and you will be competent with lead belaying.  If you are unsure whether you have the appropriate experience please send me a message to discuss.

If there is wet weather the event may be cancelled, or move location. 

This is being organised as a day event, so that people can choose to join us for a single day - but there is also a day event at High Neb on Saturday that you can sign up to. Some of us will most likely spend a night or two at a hostel or camping nearby. Please contact me if you want to join us.
