Rhoscolyn is a fantastic area that offers a great variety of climbing which ranges from the harder routes around Llawder Zawn and Fallen Block Zawn to some more gentle routes at Sea Cave Zawn and Porth Saint. The climbing and rock are high quality and the location makes it a charming place to climb, often in splendid isolation. There are good routes from VD through to the upper E-grades. Also included is the nearby lovely lower-grade area of Porth-y-Garan.
