A quiet and accessible outcrop just a few miles North of the Dunkeld area that can provide a useful alternative if Cave Crag is to steep.
The lines are not so aesthetic but it's a nice sunny location, with some good lines.
Recomendations: Hunt the Gunman (E3), Doctor Squeal (E2), Picnic Parade (E2), The Overhanging Crack (E1).
Heaps of routes at very low grades too.
Drive up the A9 and take the right turn to Guay. At the left bend, drive up the gravel and park (56.627118, -3.620813). Easy 5 minute walk from limited car parking on the tight bend.
*Warning* At times the gravel parking is closed so alternative parking must be found.

drove out there, looked at it for 5/10 minutes - then went to Dunkeld... probably a good alternative if your local. but i couldn't See it,, bodovix - 12/Dec/16 |

Really nice little crag. Pretty steep in places but generally good holds. Beautiful serene views and often very peaceful. CurlyStevo - 13/May/09 |

A good short crag with a selection of grades, needs a bit of traffic, some loose stuff about. Belays not great, but ok could do with a stake or two. Some gradings a little off, but worth a visit if Polney is busy etc.

All come reconmended.
Diagnol Crack has had a little face lift and with a little more traffic will provide a good route for the grade. Will W - 15/Jun/08 |
