Pembroke North – volume 1 – but fourth to appear – covers the area from Ceredigeon in the north (slightly outside the county!) to Milford Haven. The variety and quality of the climbing on offer beautifully compliments the stunning scenery. Traditional climbing remains the main focus with the classic crags, Carey-y-Barcud, Porthclais, and Caerfai rightly taking pride of place, although St David’s Head is now given the prominence it deserves.

Pembroke Range West – volume 2 – is the last in the definitive series (but by Range West devotees is not viewed as the least). As the name suggests it covers the part of Castlemartin Range extending westwards from Stack Rocks car park.

The 2023 edition of Rockfax North Wales Climbs builds upon the success of the 2013 edition, offering expanded coverage with numerous additional routes and predominantly new aerial crag photography. All maps have been meticulously updated, and the guide features an entirely new collection of striking action photographs. The variety of crags, routes, and climbing styles is unparalleled, encompassing the major mountain crags of Llanberis Pass, Cloggy, Ogwen, Moelwyns, and the Carneddau, as well as the Llanberis Slate quarries, Tremadog, Mid-Wales, Gogarth, and the Ormes of Llandudno.

This book covers the fine area of quality limestone crags and quarries lining the Eglwyseg Valley, situated to the north of Llangollen, and some delightful quarries and smaller edges in the near-by area.

A very thorough reassessment of the climbing on the south side of the A5, based around the ever-popular Tryfan and Cwm Idwal areas, including some 140 new routes climbed since the last guide, and many ‘rediscovered’ older climbs. The new routes are at all grades and on both old and new crags.

The Gogarth North guidebook is a climbing guide to the glorious sea cliffs of Gogarth, situated on the western tip of Anglesey.

The guide contains descriptions of the most popular bouldering areas in the Pass written by local bouldering guru Simon Panton, and illustrated by 14 of his own photo topos and a number of action photos.

From the sombre cliffs and stacks near the Green Bridge of Wales via the imposing Mewsford Point all the way to Hollow Caves Bay this guidebook has it all. The sunny and open Crystal Slabs and Crickmail Point; the serious cliffs of the Stack Rocks area and the Cauldron, the variety of the Castle with routes from VD to E7 and, if you want to get your kit off, there’s even some DWS.
