Welcome to Northumberland Climbing
The free climbing guide that you can edit.
Together with our guidebooks this constitutes a definitive guide to climbing in Northumberland and provides the most regularly updated information about all aspects of rock-climbing in the North East area of England and the borders of Scotland.
We're currently in the process of porting over the old guidebook database into a new platform - you can access a static copy here of the old website.
This guide compliments the definitive guides "Northumberland Climbing Guide" and "Northumberland Bouldering" both published by the NMC.
