SZ0276 : Cliffs at Swanage

Swanage, Dorset, Great Britain

Cliffs at Swanage
Cliffs at Swanage
The jurassic limestone cliffs south and west of Swanage are a popular rock-climbing destination. These climbers are bringing up their seconds at the end of the Subluminal area - below the Anvil Point lighthouse - where the climbs are short and start and finish on nice safe ledges. Climbing on the other Swanage cliffs (including Boulder Ruckle, in the sunlight) can be rather more serious, due to tidal starts, longer routes and top-outs on steep grass.
