About Aldery Cliff

Aldery Cliff is a compact, sheltered limestone quarry located near Earl Sterndale in the Upper Dove Valley. The rock is vertical Peak limestone featuring sharp crimps, pockets, and narrow cracks. Facing south, the cliff traps warmth on sunny days and dries quickly on open upper faces, although lower vegetated sections can stay damp. The crag offers traditional limestone climbing across lower and intermediate grades, making it a valuable venue for trad practice on limestone. The classic Viaduct Wall is a standout route at the crag. Access is straightforward, taking only two minutes from the roadside parking in the village. Loose rock in uncleaned areas and polished footholds are the main points to keep in mind.
