What are some of the best lines in Europe?

Obviously it has to be something at the Tor.

AFAIK this is an as-yet-unclimbed linkup. I've mentioned it to people who are into Tor linkups but it hasn't piqued any interest. They've been more than capable of climbing it (I'm certainly not), so presumably they have just been too overawed by the majesty of the line.

but once onto the slabby bit, going onto the wall of

when that gets to the tufa of the Prow, joining that for

If a pebble was dropped from the summit of the Tor it would take that line. It misses out the rests at the Revelations belay and at the nesting hole on the Prow because the climbing doesn't lead past them, not because of any contrivance. It has an amazing variety of styles of climbing. I guess it would only be 8b+. Everyone get going!
