Climber› s Handbook to England & Wales

A complete guide to over 1000 locations, rock climbing, cliffs & crags,
bouldering, indoor walls, outdoor walls, gear shops, climbing clubs, pubs and
camping.
A completely comprehensive and illustrative full colour handbook to English
and Welsh climbing – an essential guide for any UK climbers. It provides the
basic reference material for beginner to experienced alpinist.

This is a nationally important title that has been designed to give a complete
overview to all the climbing facilities in England and Wales. It is intended
for everyone who is interested in climbing, and should provide the basic
reference material for beginner to experienced alpinist. It uses as a base of
information all the crag, bouldering and wall information from the previously
published ‹Crag guide to England and Wales.› However, it is now produced as a
really modern and funky colour guidebook, with many modern groovy icons that
appeal to kids starting out, and amuse the somewhat conservative oldies. It is
a real bumper thumper of a reference guide to English climbing.

At the back of the book is a list of appendixes for useful contacts across the
whole spectre of UK climbing. Gear manufactures, insurance companies, boot
resole, climbing holds, websites, etc. The book is simply what it offers to
be, a completely comprehensive, illustrated handbook.
