About Shuanglang Hard:
There are 21 routes (20 sport routes and 1 trad route) at Shuanglang Hard, grades 5.9 – 5.12d. At first glance, the rock appears to be limestone but when split open appears similar to quartzite. The routes vary from slightly to very overhanging, with neat features and some tufa. All of the routes were bolted in March 2011, and loose rock is still abundant. Be careful and wear a helmet. The crag faces the sun and it can be hot, though there are a few overhanging sections of the cliff where it is possible to find shade. Make sure you have at least 14 draws and a 60m rope in order to be able to climb all of the routes here. |
Approach: | To get here, take a bus/van to Shuanglang and get off 1 km further down the road from DaJianPang at ChangYuCun. There is no trail that connects Shuanglang Softcore with Shuanglang Hardcore, so plan accordingly. |
