Sandstone climbing in Kent: Harrison's Rocks

'Harrison Rocks is the largest and most popular outcrop in the whole area, and deservedly so, for it offers excellent climbing in all grades.' (Jingo Wobbly, Sandstone South East England).

A short 1.5h drive from London this crag indeed offers a large number of routes. SamX and I spent a great afternoon climbing. Given the little practice lately I struggle past 5a, while Sam seems to currently feel very comfortable to flash the upper 5th grade.

Sandstone is quite unique in that it is smooth and easily can be greasy when humid. Not my preferred rock...

On a sunday the crag is well populated. All crags are toprope and can be set up from the belay at the top.
Anchor are excellent, typically there are two rings already connected with a metal line. Carry long slings to extend the anchor off the top.
