Napes Needle

The Napes are a cliff face to the south of Great Gable. W. P. Haskett-Smith's ascent of the remarkable detached pinnacle of Napes Needle in June 1886 is thought by many to mark the origins in England of rock climbing as a sport in its own right.

Sponsors Berghaus produced this atmospheric video of British climber, Leo Houlding, on Napes Needle.
