The Cheesewring and South East Cornwall

Something of a climbing backwater, the most popular and well known crag being The Cheesewring, a large desolate quarry sat on top of Bodmin Moor home to a number of outsranding routes.

There is something for everyone in the area (sort of); whether you fancy remote sea cliffs (of sometimes questionable rock), inland granite routes (sport, trad, moorland and quarried) or a spot of bouldering. When taken with a pinch of salt the area is well worth a visit.
