Bosigran
Granite Faces SW trad VD to E6 6b
The greatest of the West Penwith granite sea cliffs, a clean golden face rising 70m from a wild Atlantic zawn. Perfect rough granite gives sustained crack and wall climbing, from the alpine-style scramble of Commando Ridge to the celebrated wall pitches of Suicide Wall. A Cornish climbing pilgrimage in a magnificent setting.
