Borrowdale is probably the most beautiful valley in the Lake
District and offers the rock climber a huge variety of climbing
styles often in stunning panoramic settings. The valley is
well-known for accessible roadside climbing on crags such as
Reecastle, the ever popular Shepherd's Crag, Quayfoot Buttress and
the Bowderstone area, with most crags enjoying sun in the
afternoon. There are also a number of classic mountain venues like
Gillercomb and Raven Crag, Combe Gill where solitude and far
reaching vistas over the Lakeland fells can be savoured.This 2016
Borrowdale guide from the FRCC is fully revised. The valley is
divided into six logical areas presented with specially
commissioned showcase action images and clear OS based mapping. The
popular A5 format provides greater clarity and there is full
photodiagram coverage. The less well-trodden places such as the
Seathwaite buttresses, Combe Gill and Langstrath are given clear
photoplan coverage which clarifies these complex areas of small
immaculate outcrops. Exciting action images and the usual
supplementary essential information such as parking and camping are
included together with a comprehensive crag selector.The Fell &
Rock Climbing Club is the premier rock climbing and mountaineering
club in the English Lake District. The Club was founded in 1906-07
and has been publishing a definitive series of climbing guidebooks
to the Lakes since 1922.
