Beckstones Gill Path Closure - Update:

As many of you will be aware, the recommended ascent path up to Barf alongside Beckstones Gill has been restricted/closed for the past few months due to tree felling and path clearance. The path is currently blocked and not accessible, clearly this could have a bearing on any FGR attempts taking place in the next few months.

The pathway closure notice expires on 1st March 2022 and it hoped that it will open before then. If you ARE planning an attempt before that date, it would be wise to determine access and if necessary come up with an alternate strategy. Just to be absolutely clear, the Frog Graham Round Club does not advocate or suggest any alternate routes, only that you you should always err on the side of caution and do not take unnecessary risks. Note that the LDNPA does suggest an alternate route in the relevant Public Path Notice (link below).

We will keep you updated as and when restrictions are lifted.
