  Leicestershire Bouldering
Leicestershire Bouldering

This website catalogues some of the bouldering to be had on the ancient volcanic rocks of Leicestershire. Crags of granite, tuff, slate, hornstone and even gritstone (kind of) await your fingertips. 

​The menu is in the top left, have an explore.

For those interested, there is a Facebook group for regular Leicestershire Boulderers to talk about conditions, beta, notify others when you've cleaned up a infrequently climbed problem, find people to team up with when you need a lot of pads for a high problem etc. Feel free to join!

When my mum could, I would get her to take me to an outcrop near our home called Beacon Hill, which had a few short climbs, or to Slawston Bridge, an abandoned railway bridge where I could do problems like those we did on the wall at school. That was a brilliant summer.
