Crag features

The craggy old wooded hillside above the west end of Aberfoyle. It is characterised by a south-facing  scree slope and big quarry with associated boulders below in the woods. About a dozen good problems exist with scope for more. 

Approach notes

Park considerately in Aberfoyle in front of the Church of Scotland on the road west to Inversnaid. Walk west to the small row of houses and follow the path behind these uphill to zig zag left up to find the boulders in the woods. Higher up in the quarry are some closed projects, please respect these (parking for these is best at the Duke's Pass car caprk - charge). Please respect the protected nature of the area.

No Access Issues

Protected national park.Possible bird bans and bouldering only.

Has anyone climbed this slab ? Every time I drive under it makes me think "should I check it out....."
