Rock scrambling on Cneifon Arête and learning the rope work skills required for fast scrambling is a good skills set to have. We spend the day moving fast with an Alpine style approach to rock scrambling. The first pitch of Cneifon Arête is steep rocking climbing followed by an hard to start chimney then the ground eases with delightful but very exposed rock scrambling with spikes leading on to the main ridge.
