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 minutes by 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.
