Welcome to the North Wales Limestone Wiki.
The aim of this site is for us to keep each other informed and up to date on the condition of routes across the North Wales Limestone area. This will principally revolve around which routes have safe bolts, which don't and an update when routes have been re-bolted. Since there's now no definitive guidebook in-print this wiki is also a good place for an online topo. Please consider visiting and contributing to these other wiki's too: Slate, Gogarth, Tremadog and Welsh Winter Climbs. You can use the same user name and password. Get typing!

The Climbing
Routes in this type face are currently banned due to rock instability.


North Wales Bolt Fund
The fund relies on donations from the climbing community and companies associated with climbing. Bolts cost money and stainless ones even more! Drills, resin and static ropes all eat away at the donations so it needs constantly topping up. Donations can be made by Credit Card, Debit Card or Paypal by clicking on the 'Donate' link above. Donations can also be sent to: NWBF, Llysfaen, Lon Brynteg, Glyn Garth, Menai Brridge, LL59 5NU, or dropped off at the following climbing shops: V12 - Llanberis, Joe Browns - Llanberis & Capel Curig, Great Arete - Bangor, The Beacon Climbing Wall, and The Indi Climbing Wall. Thank you for supporting climbing in North Wales! NWBF is actively involved in the re-equipping of bolts on these crags as it is on other bolted areas in North Wales including the Clwyd Area and the Llanberis Slate Quarries. Volunteers who value the superb climbing available in these areas and the need for safe bolts carry out all installations but would rather be climbing, so help out if you can. If you spot a poor bolt (or other fixed equipment) let the NWBF know via northwalesboltfund@googlemail.com or the discussion forums on this site or by emailing one of the key contacts: North Wales Coast: Chris Doyle - crimpmaster28@hotmail.com Clywd Limestone: Lee Proctor - leeproctor@phoenixchem.com Slate: Simon Panton - simonpanton@northwalesbouldering.com General: Chris Parkin - chrisparkinguide@gmail.com.

Weather: This webcam shows the weather at Llandudno Junction. It could of course be much better on the Orme itself, but it'll give you some idea. This is a better webcam for The Orme:http://www.llandudno-weather.co.uk/it looks over to Pen Trwyn, perfect!And here's the metcheck page for Llandudno.

"SIMPLI-CITY" F6A (3 BR's). 3m left of 'Jug City' (F6A+) climb the steep, bouldery wall to easier climbing above, trending rightwards to share the lower-off of Jug City. Another gap plugged on this fantastic, sunny little cliff! F.A. JIM/JULIA KELLY 11-04-2012.
