About Dinorwic Slate Quarry (Serengeti & Never Never Land)
Upper-level Dinorwic slate — a pair of adjacent quarry levels above Rainbow Slab, both from the Redhead-era of hard slate development. The Serengeti sector holds a run of superb E4s: Out of Africa, Balance of Power, Remain in Light — all thin, technical wall climbing on compact slate. Never Never Land itself hosts Kubla Khan (E4 6a) and the eponymous Never Never Land (E5 6a). Route 362 takes its name from the number of quarrymen killed working the Dinorwic quarries. South-west facing, catching good afternoon sun and drying almost immediately once weather passes. A dedicated E4-and-up playground — not the place for your first slate day.
