WODEN'S FACE

Rock Type Granite
Access From Keswick the car park is past Grange on the left, and is sign posted as the Bowderstone. The car park is a national trust car park. From the car park fallow the path towards the Bowderstone. Through a gate, the path bends right round a slab on the right. The face on the left.
Comments The buttress is popular with groups, and is thus quite well worn. The face is solid and clean, although it does not dry that quickly due to the vegetation, and seepage.
Best Routes Family Outing, 16m, MS. Easy and clean.

Woden's Face, 30m, VD. Good, but limited protection.

Tantalus, 20m, VS 4c.
