Roaches Skyline

Although close to the busy Upper and Lower Tiers at the Roaches, the Skyline area offers climbing in much quieter and more remote setting. The Skyline edge presents a series of small buttresses dotted along the ridge, often rising out of a tree-covered base. The main path runs along the top of the ridge meaning that there is little passing traffic and the only other people you are likely to meet are other climbers who have put in the effort to walk that bit further. Once under the crag you will find rock and routes as good as on the main Roaches crags with some real gems hidden away.
