Autumn in Pembrokeshire
Wow, what a start to Autumn in Pembrokeshire and the clocks going back! The weather has been incredible, with some climbing in shorts and t-shirts, surfing for hours in the warm water and long sweaty cycles over the Preseli hills – oh and a bit of work! We’re off on a sport climbing and road biking trip to Mallorca in a couple of weeks so it’s all about the training at the minute!
Autumn in Pembrokeshire is a special time..
Work wise it’s quieter at this time of year for us, but I’ve been out climbing and coasteering a bit with some lovely people. It’s strange that it’s quieter as the weather has been superb, but it’s always the same in Autumn in Pembrokeshire. Tobias and Dad Steve came climbing with me the other day, and 13 year old Tobias was lead climbing up to vs, whilst seconding e1’s – awesome effort guys!

I’ve had a brilliant few days personal climbing, it’s great to get out on dry rock with the awesome weather October and Autumn in Pembrokeshire has brought us, and with the crags deserted we have so much to go at! Joey is just starting lead climbing so it’s been great to see her come on, and she’s starting to do some pretty adventurous routes at an early stage in her climbing – she’ll be climbing hard in no time! It was great to revisit one of the best routes in Pembrokeshire after not having done it in a couple of years – Bow Shaped Slab really is amazing!
It’s been a pleasure spending the Autumn in Pembrokeshire, long may the nice weather continue! We just need it to start getting super cold and snowy up north now so I can dust off the ice-axes!
Amazing climbing in the Bow Shaped Slab area this Autumn in Pembrokehsire
What a great end to the day climbing at Porth Clais, this Autumn in Pembrokeshire…
