Rockfax Description
Quality and varied crack-and-groove work. Start up the steep groove on the left-hand side of the central bay of the cliff.
1) 5c, 30m. Climb the groove then move left to a flake. The continuation crack is good value and needs a determined approach, as does the exit. Move left to a belay on Creagh Dhu Wall's beefy tree.
2) 5c, 24m. The long groove is technical, sustained and well protected to a leftwards exit - more full-on climbing. © Rockfax

βeta: Slightly overgrown on p2. Would be worth someone taking some gloves or secateurs to remove the brambles. | βeta? | |

βeta: Brambles and Ivy removed from P2 and brambles beat back at the start of P1. It's looking pretty clean now and a couple of overgrown (but previously worn) wire placements have been revealed on P2. | βeta? | |

βeta: Lead both. P1 is harder than it looks but there are decent rests if you can body jam. Bomber gear. Top out is a little desperate (had to grab some ferns with the right hand). P2 is technical but good holds keep appearing along with gear. Currently slightly overgrown (tried to clean it a bit) but it doesn’t affect the climbing much. Also great gear. Top out is fine. Solid E2 but safe! | βeta? | |
