Crag features

A recently bolted crag situated in a fine setting close to the north shore of Loch nan Uamh, a short distance west of Crimson Crag (SMCJ 2017). The differing aspects of the crag often result in it being a sun trap in good weather. Equipped with stainless steel bolts and lower offs. The routes are short but varied and generally of good quality.

Approach notes

Parking at Princes cairn layby on the A830, NM 71888 84467, follow the A830 West until at the sweeping bend. A small path leads from the bend down onto a shingle beach. Thereafter, cross a burn, a further shingle beach, then walk through a deep rocky gully on the right (climb over rocks to the side in high tides). Continue along the rocky shore via a short chimney up a wall below a large jammed block just before the crag (approx. 15-20 mins). Walk in/out may be much more difficult exactly at high tide.

The routes are described from left to right.

No Access Issues

The crofter has voiced concerns about climbers on his land.  Please park considerably  at Princes cairn layby, NM 71888 84467, 

Visited this crag three times in May 2023 and enjoyed it each time. The approach is interesting, the setting wonderful, the routes follow good lines and the rock is excellent. I just wish it was twice as high!
