The Duddon Valley is probably one of the most beautiful valleys in
the Lake District and its certainly one of the least frequented and
unspoilt. Many climbers will be familiar with the area due to the
relative popularity of Wallowbarrow Crag, a great venue for the low
to mid-grade climber set in stunning surroundings. The valley has
seen a huge explosion in development of new routes in recent years
on the many outcrop style crags that litter the valleys sides. Many
of the routes are single pitch with easy access and short
approaches giving the climber a wealth of choice and an escape from
the crowds. This 2021 Duddon & Wrynose guide from the FRCC is
bang up to date. The guide covers both the Duddon Valley and the
popular crags accessed from Wrynose Pass (the Wrynose Pass crags
were previously covered in the 2013 Langdale guide). The guide
describes in excess of 1300 routes, many of them having been
established since the publication of the previous guide back in
1993. The popular A5 format provides great clarity and ease of use
and there is full photo-diagram coverage. There are many great
action shots included in the guide and there's the usual
supplementary information on parking and camping; a comprehensive
crag selector is also included. 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.
