CLOGWYN Y GROCHAN


The tall left-hand side of the crag has a long diagonal corner/groove running up it. This is the classic Nea. The other routes hereabouts give slightly steeper climbing. The central section of the Grochan is fiercely steep. It has a few wandering mid-grade routes, but most of the routes are stiff challenges, whilst the ever-popular right-hand side of the Grochan sports several tough HVS's and a couple of belting E3 lines.
