About Intake Quarry

Intake Quarry is a disused limestone quarry located near Middleton-by-Wirksworth, offering a peaceful sport climbing venue. The quarried limestone walls are clean, compact, and vertical, featuring sharp crimps and technical edge climbing. Facing various directions across internal quarry bays, sunlight can be found throughout the day, and open air circulation ensures reasonable drying times. The crag features dozens of fully bolted sport routes mainly between 6a and 7a+, catering well to intermediate sport leaders. Classic climbs like Intake Wall provide sustained face climbing. Reach the quarry via a five to ten minute walk from roadside parking laybys. Uncleaned loose rock on the quarry rim requires care when moving around top anchors.
