Kyloe In
Area Description
An exceptional crag which for over two decades has witnessed boulder problems of ground-breaking difficulty. These include the classic Yorkshireman from 1986 to Malcolm Smith's sit down starts and the unrepeated traverses Lothlorian and Leviathan, through to the recent testpieces Caterpult and Monk Life. Some of the hardest climbing in the world on world-class quality rock in a magnificent location.
