Eden Valley Interim Guidebook
Published: 06/07/2007
The last comprehensive guidebook to North Cumbrian Limestone, the Border area, and the Eden Valley, was North of England Rock Climbs by Stewart Wilson (Cordee 1992). It has been out of print for several years now. It is intended to include those of these areas that lie within Cumbria in the next FRCC Eastern Crags guide, but this is not expected to go into print until 2008 at the earliest. With the blessing of Stewart Wilson, the FRCC has now made current descriptions for these crags available on the internet in Adobe Acrobat format; these can be downloaded and printed as required. As climbs are checked and descriptions revised, updated information will be published in the Rock Climbing area of this site. Any new routes recorded since the 1992 guide have also been included.
Please be aware that some of the access information given is over ten years old and may well be inaccurate.
