About White Ghyll

West-facing gorge crag in upper Langdale — wind funnels up/down which can make it cold despite the aspect. Brilliant collection of routes in the V Diff to VS range. 30-min approach. Carved from rough, featured volcanic rock, the cliff offers dense grade coverage in the VS to E2 range with steep groove systems, delicate slabs, and bold arête climbing. Classics include White Ghyll Wall (VS 4c) and the historic multi-pitch Haste Not (HVS 5a) on immaculate rock. Top-out slopes can become greasy after rain — take care when constructing anchor systems on grassy mountain ledges.

Region: Lake District — Langdale
Rock type: Rhyolite
Aspect: west-facing
Altitude: 400m
Exposure: medium
Seepage: medium
