Toll Road Crags

Avon and Somerset

Toll Road crags are a selection of limestone buttresses, walls caves and overhangs found in several small sectors spread out along the Weston Super Mare to Sand Bay coastal Toll road. The rock is solid and often pleasingly wave smoothed, and provides a variety of powerful and interesting problems. The locations are surprisingly secluded with great views out to sea. The majority of the bouldering is only affected by 9m+ tides, the 2nd highest in the world.Credit should go to Dan Savory for discovering and developing the area.Thanks to EsotericBouldering.com for the info!

Walk through cafe gardens down to beach.Metal Steps Sector: Park in the first obvious lay bye on and walk down to fishing ledge, then down metal steps.Fisherman's Ledge Sector: As for metal steps sector but walk east along the beach to the caves (5mins walk)Lone Cave/Paul's Wall: Either access from metal steps and walk east (about 15-20mins walk) OR park in large wooden lay bye further up the road, walk along path along road then scramble down to another fishing ledge and walk west. Little Cove: As for Lone Cave but walk east for 5mins.Vector Slab: As for Lone Cave but walk east for 10mins.ADVICE: It's easier and quicker to walk on the sand 10m away from the rocks then right up close to the rocks.
